<p class="arguement"><strong>value</strong>The value to search for.</p>
<p class="arguement"><strong>array</strong>An array through which to search.</p>
<p class="arguement"><strong>fromIndex</strong>The index of the array at which to begin the search. The default is 0, which will search the whole array.</p>
</li></ul>
<div class="longdesc">
<p>The <code>$.inArray()</code> method is similar to JavaScript's native <code>.indexOf()</code> method in that it returns -1 when it doesn't find a match. If the first element within the array matches <code>value</code>, <code>$.inArray()</code> returns 0.</p>
<p>Because JavaScript treats 0 as loosely equal to false (i.e. 0 == false, but 0 !== false), if we're checking for the presence of <code>value</code> within <code>array</code>, we need to check if it's not equal to (or greater than) -1.</p>
