new to PHP cicle and array problem

[Albertogomes]

for($j=0;$j<$i;$j++){
if($produto == $produtos[$j]){
echo $produto;
break;
}
else echo "error"; // errorerrorerroerror$produto if the last exists and error when the others are differnt
}
im trying to get a variable if exists in an array and get an error message if that variable doesn´t exists in the array. how can i do that? Thanks

Where is are your variables $i and $producto being defined (could do with seing them to make sure your loop will work in the first instance)?

Also, you don't break within your for loop so remove that.

<?php
foreach ($produtos as $plist) {
  if ( in_array($plist, $produto) ) {
    echo $plist . " Found!<br />";
  }
  else {
    echo "Product not found!<br />";
  }
}
?>
