I very new to PHP, as in just started messing around with a scipt an hour ago, and I need some help (already) here is the problem

my code is like this
if ($sysdat=='other') echo "Example Other";

but incase of a misstype I want the case sensitivity removed, the only way I can think of doing it is

if ($sysdat=='other' || $sysdat=='Other' || $sysdat=='OTher' || $sysdat=='OtHer' (ect ect... ) echo "Example Other";

is there a way I can have it assume that the case in nonimportant?
