yep, i have, tried in_array with no results...

here's the pic of code... i'm a newbie at this...

if (is_dir($dirlist)==true ) {
chdir( $dirlist );
$handle=opendir( ".");
}
$x=0;
$images=array();
while (($file = readdir($handle))!==false) {
$pieces = explode (".", $file);
if ($pieces[0] && $pieces[1]) {
if (($pieces[1]=="gif") || ($pieces[1]=="jpg") || ($pieces[1]=="GIF")
|| ($pieces[1]=="JPG") || ($pieces[1]=="bmp") || ($pieces[1]=="BMP") ||
($pieces[1]=="png") || ($pieces[1]=="PNG")) {
$images[$x]=$file;
$x++;
}
}
}
closedir($handle);
}
else
{
$images = unserialize(base64_decode($myArrayS));
}
echo "";
$players=array();
for ($i=0; $i<sizeof($images); $i++)
{
if (in_array($playername,$images)) { $players[i]= $images[i]; }

echo "Foundnd : <B>".$players[$i]."</B><BR>";

}
