I don't quite understand what you mean, but here's what I translated:

To get a classnames (typeOf) from cursorTarget I use this:

_className = typeOf (cursorTarget);

I don't know what you mean by an array though

_obj = cursorTarget;
_txt = format["%1", _obj];
titleText [_txt,"PLAIN DOWN"]; titleFadeOut 4;

I have a predefined array ie myArray = ["classname1","classname2"];

how to detect when my cursortarget is one of those classnames in myArray?

Well that makes more sense.

if (typeOf (cursorTarget) in _myArray) then {systemChat "it's in the array!"};
