I am looking for the fastest way to parse a chat string and compare it to 4 strings to see if there is a match. Basically I have a text string
"The brown fox ran really fast."
and I want to see if anywhere in there the words
"brown" , "orange", "white", "go" appear.
The 4 words being searched for are a varied length.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

"Brown" does appear, "orange", "white", and "go" don't appear. Problem solved.
Next question? I believe llSubStringIndex , at http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlSubStringIndex , is what you want. _____________________

If you're using case sensitive functions to do the parsing, you'll need to remember to convert the string to either all lower or all upper case before doing the parsing. For example:
