[percent]

I think that the | symbol is used as a bitwise "or" in PHP.

So the use is:

$c = $a | $b; //Bits that are set in either $a or $b are set.

Unless you're manipulating bits, I don't know if you'll need this.

Hope this helps.

Yes, | in php is 'or'

if($something==$something_else || $blah=true){
//do something
}

This code will check to see if the variable 'something' is equal to 'something_else' OR if 'blah' is true.
