Function Vairable

[NZ_Kiwis]

I've created a function, i want to use this but i want to be able to change $REGION to be either 1 or 4, I know this goes in after displaynews but what it i have 1 AND 4???

<?PHP

function DisplayNews() {


require('db.php');
$result = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM NEWS WHERE REGION = $RESGION ORDER BY NewsID DESC LIMIT 35");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){

echo "<a class=\"BlackNormal\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"viewnews.php?ID=" . $row['NewsID'] . "\">". $row['Title'] . "\</a> <span class=\"SmallFontGreyItalic\">(#" . $row['ViewCount'] . " views ) </span><br />";

}



}
?>

I guess the question is more a database one, select where something is equal to more than one possible option.

Is your question simply how to add parameters/arguments to user-defined functions? If so, just read the manual: [man]functions.arguments[/man].

I guess the question is now how to get the WHERE clause from

WHERE RegionID = 6 or 8 or whatever numbers are passed

You'd use function arguments as I linked to above. Make the region number an argument to the function and use that argument in the SQL query.
