Creating an IF Statement for an array

[CoolCarPartsOnline]

I am trying to create an statement to display different banner based on the manufacturer page and categories. It works fine when I put one manufacturer and one cPath but I need an array of cPath not sure how to do that. Here is the statement I used

<div id="siteBanners">
<?php 
if ($current_page_base == 'index' and ($manufacturers_id == '36' or $cPath == array('141_160','141_156','141_145','141_157','141_159','141_142','141_149','141_152','141_153','141_150','141_143','144_155','144_154','144_146','144_147','144_151','258_158')) ) {
         echo'<a href="/pop-ups/seibon-coupon.html" rel="popup console 500 350 noicon"><img src="'. DIR_WS_TEMPLATES . $template_dir . '/images/banners/seibon-banner.gif" alt="Get 10% off Seibon Products" /></a>'; 
     } elseif ($current_page_base == 'index') {
           echo '<a href="/pop-ups/google-checkout-sale.html" rel="popup console 500 350 noicon"><img src="'. DIR_WS_TEMPLATES . $template_dir . '/images/banners/GoogleCheckout-banner.gif" alt="Get 10% Off Your Order with Google Checkout" /></a>';
    }?>
</div>

Note this statement is wrong, I am using only one cPath now but I would love to get the statement working for multiple categories.

Take a look at in_array:

Adapt fro tpl_main_page.php:[pgp]// the following IF statement can be duplicated/modified as needed to set additional flags
if (in_array($current_page_base,explode(",",'list_pages_to_skip_all_right_sideboxes _on_here,separated_by_commas,and_no_spaces')) ) {
$flag_disable_right = true;
}[/php]

if (in_array($cPath, ,explode(",",'141_160','141_156','141_145','141_157','141_159','141_142','141_14 9','141_152','141_153','141_150','141_143','144_155','144_154','144_146','144_14 7','144_151','258_158')) ) {
//your code
}

You know I looked at that but I didn't know how to really adapt it to my case. I learned Zen Cart by trail and error so sometimes I don't understand the actual php syntax. Thanks for both answers I think I can get it working now.

Hey Glenn
I used the code from your post and it didn't work....here is my code:

<?php if (in_array($cPath,explode(",",'141_160','141_156','141_145','141_157','141_159','141_142','141_149','141_152','141_153','141_150','141_143','144_155','144_154','144_146','144_147','144_151','258_158')) ) {
    echo'<a href="/pop-ups/seibon-coupon.html" rel="popup console 500 350 noicon"><img src="'. DIR_WS_TEMPLATES . $template_dir . '/images/banners/seibon-banner.gif" alt="Get 10% off Seibon Products" /></a>'; 
     } elseif ($current_page_base == 'index') {
    echo '<a href="/pop-ups/google-checkout-sale.html" rel="popup console 500 350 noicon"><img src="'. DIR_WS_TEMPLATES . $template_dir . '/images/banners/GoogleCheckout-banner.gif" alt="Get 10% Off Your Order with Google Checkout" /></a>';
}?>

There is an error in the use of the explode function.

You are sending every cPath value as a different parameter to the explode function. But all cPath values should be in a single string, delimited by commas.

for example like this:

<?php 
$my_cPath_string = "141_160,141_156,141_145";
if (in_array($cPath,explode(',', $my_cPath_string)) ) {
   // your code here
}?>

That worked, thank you.

Right, copied the list of cPaths from the array without converting it to the explode format.
