Maybe I'm being dense here, but won't a simple "isset()" work (using the
KISS principle)?
$ary=array("aa"=>"yy","bb"=>"zz");
$key="aa";
if (isset($ary[$key]))
print "$key set\n";
else
print "$key not set\n";
$key="bb";
if (isset($ary[$key]))
print "$key set\n";
else
print "$key not set\n";
$key="cc";
if (isset($ary[$key]))
print "$key set\n";
else
print "$key not set\n"
returns
aa set
bb set
cc not set
