$Obj->hasFlag()

$Obj->hasFlag($flag,$person);

Has $person added flag $flag to $obj? Returns true if so, otherwise returns false.

// do not post comment if user is blocked
if ($POD->currentUser()->hasFlag('block',$content->author())) {
  echo "You have been blocked!";
} else {
  $content->addComment($comment);
}

To check if ANYONE has added $flag, exclude the $person parameter:

if ($content->hasFlag('featured')) { 
  echo "Featured!";
}

To get the value of a flag, this works:
$content->addFlag($flag,$user,$my_value);
$result = $content->hasFlag($flag,$user);
$result will equal $my_value is all went well.
