hey all, Is it possible to get a wildcard in php or is there a contains operator in php?

What i'm trying to do is:

    <?php 
global $userBrowser;
$userBrowser = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
$fx = "[wildcard]Firefox[wildcard]";
if($userBrowser==$fx)

I'm trying to make it so that if $userBorwser contains the word "firefox" to display a different code.

Thanks, hope you understand.

I've fixed it now and edd has tested it for me (thanks edd).

I used:

$pos = strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'],"Firefox");
  if (!($pos===false))

Thanks to greg8872 at phpaddict.com for the code.
