it's a handy way to white list data. e.g.
if (in_array($_GET['yourarg'], $allowedValsForYourArg)) echo "nice arg
dude";
(btw: no need to beg ;-)
I agree that the in_array function is useful, but the OP was asking for a
way to shorten (a == 1 or a == 2). Maybe the question was poorly stated
and meant to ask how to compare a variable to a larger number of values
but that's not what I got from it. I read it as an 'I want to save my
fingers a bit of typing' and wondered if I was missing the point.
I beg your pardon.

He is probably looking for something like in SQL: where field in (1,2)
