One variable not equal to 2 values.

How would I write this statement:

if $thisvar is not equal to this value or that value. { do stuff }


Thanks,

Ed

Other way to do it is:

$posible_values = array("this value", "that value", "other value");
if (in_array($thisvalue, $posible_values)) {
// $thisvalue is in $posible_values
} else {
// $thisvalue is NOT in $posible_values
}

*grin* here's another:

if( $thisvar == 'this value'
? false
: ($thisvar == 'that value'
? false
: true) )
{
// do stuff.
}

Ok. I have to throw this in for historical purposes :)

switch ($thisvar) {
case 'thisvalue':
case 'thatvalue':
break;
default:
// do stuff
break;
}
