strpos($array,$check) in loop - php

Question

I am using a While loop to go through the result of a sql Query. Inside of the While loop I am using a for loop to do a "wildcard search" in an array. Right now I am getting way to many results. The goal is to compare the rows in the $social_result from the SQL query with the content of the array $email_rank_results and add 1 to the $social_cnt variable if found. I would really appreciate if someone could give me some advise on how to change the code to achieve this.
The $email_rank_results array contains values like 'google.com','facebook.com','linkedin.com','twitter.com'
The $social_result contains values like 'pages.facebook.com', 'nb-linkedin.com', 'plus.google.com'
Here is my code:
$socialSQL= sprintf("SELECT name FROM class_social");
$social_result = mysql_query($socialSQL) or die ("Error in query: $socialSQL " . mysql_error());
while($row=mysql_fetch_row($social_result)) {
$check = $row[0];
$max = count($email_rank_results);
for($x = 0; $x < $max; $x++)
{
if (stripos($email_rank_results[1],$check) !== false)
{
$social_cnt = $social_cnt+1;
}
}
}

Answer 1

you mixed haystack with needle
in foreach loop you compare only first element of array $email_rank_results
replace:
stripos($email_rank_results[1], $check)
with
stripos($check, $email_rank_results[$x]))
or simple use foreach loop
foreach($email_rank_results as $email_rank_result)
{
if (stripos($check, $email_rank_result) !== false)
{
$social_cnt = $social_cnt+1;
}
}
in above i assume that $email_rank_results is flat array, ie array('google.com', 'facebook.com');
