Hi guys, I use this function which was provided to me by someone at this site. It works perfectly for validating a users input option against allowed options..
example:
validateInput "1" "1 3 4 5" would return 0 (success)
but now we allow users to enter more than 1 number and so this validate needs to be improved
validateInput "16" "1 3 4 5" this should return fail (1) as 6 is not in the allowedInput string.. currently the function return success because "1" is in the allowedInput string.. but I somehow need it to verify all the numbers in the first parameter
