Is there a cleaner way to do something like this, without having to repeat $var that many times?

if($var == "A" || $var == "L" || $var == "N" || 
   $var == "Q" || $var == "U" || $var == "V")

    You could do in_array. Put the right hand side in a array.

    So…

    $arr = array("A", "L", "N", "Q", "U", "V");
if (in_array($var, $arr)) {

}

    This is simple for maintainability. If you have anything more complex, a switch might be best.
