Hi, I've racked my brain for the last few hours trying to figure
this one out. I have an array of language strings such as :

$lang = array();
$lang['en']['prompt']['hello'] = 'hello';
$lang['en']['prompt']['bye'] = 'goodbye';
$lang['en']['number']['first'] = '1st';

This is being used by an ajax routine, so I don't know which string
will be requested at runtime. So, I've got $lang and a request
('en_prompt_hello'), and tried a few things such as:

$request = explode ($request);
$found_string = array_intersect_assoc ($lang, $request);

to no avail. Short of having to do a complicated recursion searching
at every available depth, is there an easy way to do this?

Thanks...
