Problem with in_array() for multi-dimensional array

[akeyworth]

Hi,

I'm having a problem either understanding or using in_array.

Here's a representation of the code I'm using:

	$query = 'SELECT * FROM sample_table where ID = ' . $['id']; 
	$data = mysql_query($query);
	$object_array = array();
	 while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($data))
	 	{
      	array_push($object_array, $row);
		}

foreach($object_array as $object)
	{
	print '<p>' . $object['ID'] . ', ' . $object['Type'];		
	if([B]in_array[/B]($object['Type'], $object_array)) 
		{
			print ' - match!';
		}
	print '</p>';
	}

The above prints out:

466, 1

466, 2

466, 3

466, 4

466, 5

466, 6

466, 7

All I'm trying to do is get it to also print ' - match!' at the end of every row, because that way I should be able to do the same kind of evaluation with another array.

The problem is, this seemingly simple function won't print ' - match!', and I honestly can't figure out why. Is it because the array is multi-dimensional? Everything in the table is an integer, so I know it's not data type problems.

Thank you.

Yes.
