Depends. Could be as simple as this to return an array of all occurrences of $needle in any of the $haystack_array values: $haystack_array = array('something is here', 'nothing matches here', 'there will be a somethingsomething match here'); $needle = 'something'; $matches_array = preg_grep("/$needle/", $haystack_array); Depends on where you are getting the search criteria and how you want it to match in the array. BTW... If this is originally in a database then you can do it there with the LIKE operator and % wildcard. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
