using variable inside if(in_array(THIS_SCRIPT, xxxx

[LifesGreatestGift]

I cannot figure out why I cannot get this variable to register inside this array.

Here is my code

$thisScript_input = $vbulletin->options['customscript'];
$thisScript_array = explode(",", trim($thisScript_input, ","));
$thisScript_string = "'" . implode("','", $thisScript_array) . "'";
echo $thisScript_string;

if (in_array(THIS_SCRIPT, array($thisScript_string)))
{
echo "YES";
}

I have an input field that accepts script names delimited by commas, so in the input field it would look like this

private,showthread,customscript

when i echo $thisScript_string it shows

'private','showthread','customscript' which is the format that the conditional should accept, but it doesnt work.

It does work if i manually put it in like this

if (in_array(THIS_SCRIPT, array('private','showthread','customscript')))
{
echo "YES";
}

I want it to be able to accept that variable. Is this possible?

Try this

$thisScript_input = $vbulletin->options['customscript'];
$thisScript_array = explode(",", trim($thisScript_input, ","));


if (in_array(THIS_SCRIPT, $thisScript_array))
{
echo "YES";
}

awesome that works, thought i may have had to convert it back into a string with single quotes delimited by commas. thanks!
