Hello List,
Trying to learn the right way to code this line.
Can anyone tell me if I am doing this the right way?

Hi,
did you mean something like this?
$level_names = array(Guest, Regular User, Intl. User,
Contractor, Employee,
Sales, Investor, Human Resources,
Administrator);
$user_level = $level_names[$req_user_level];

Hi,
$req_user_level is a MySql return result and I am trying to utilize
shortened code to evaluate whither $req_user_level == 0 || 1 || 2 ||
3 || 4 || 5 || 6 || 7 || 8 || 9, if it matches a number, return the
text associated with that number.
Guest || Regular User || Intl. User ||
I am trying to avoid doing this:
if ($req_user_level == 0) {
$req_user_level = Guest;
} else if ($req_user_level == 1) {
req_user_level = Regular User
}
etc..

Thank you for this as well.
Question? What part is in_array playing?
Is it comparing $req_user_level to array()?
Because the text Guest, etc.. is not in $req_user_level on the
database.
In other words, is it checking the value of $req_user_level to see if
Guest is in it?

Yes, $req_user_level is an int between 0 and 9.
Yes, the other code worked great.
Thank you for your response though.
That is definitely a good way to cross check.
