Help with php code

[c-prompt]

In one of my files I am using the following code:

if ($counter==1 and $pagenumber==1 and $thread[forumid]==7) {

My question is how to I add more forumids to the "$thread[forumid]==7" area? The if statement will carry over 3 forums. I tried just adding a comma and then the other forum id's but I get a parse error. What is the correct way of adding more to it?

Thank you!

i'm no expert but i would think...

if ($counter==1 and $pagenumber==1 and ($thread[forumid]==7 || $thread[forumid]==8 || $thread[forumid]==9)) { 

i think this if statement will evaluate to true if $thread[forumid]==7, 8 or 9. i think!

That could get long quick. If your adventurous, try this:

$valid_forums = array(7, 8, 9);

if ($counter==1 && $pagenumber==1 && in_array($thread[forumid], $valid_forums)) {
