[FX.php List] PHP question

[Jonathan Schwartz]

How about this...

A strpos($haystack,$needle) would also work. The function is designed 
to return the position of the "needle" in the "haystack", but also 
returns "FALSE" if the needle does not exist.

I understand that it is faster than PREG.

if(strpos($_POST['Department_Name'],"Hall") !== FALSE)
  {
Do this
}

To avoid problems resulting from upper/lower case, use stripos().

Hope there is no "Monte Hall Hall" ;-)
