What I want to do is have an input field that I can search only one column of my database. (it is a game collection) for example I want to search the game 'Medal of Honor' i type this in the search field and click submit button and it should find all the entries with that name in the database. I have tried a few online tutorials and nothing works.
here is some code that i tried.

can anybody help me do I search engine for my database This is for a faux stock photo website. When I only use the $query string to search for $searchSubject, everything goes golden. Once I put everything else in there though, the search function will not work at all. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I've been staring at this for too long and it's starting to give me a headache. PS. This is my first post here. Seems like a great community! <?php $searchSubject = $_POST['searchSubject']; $searchPhotoname = $_POST['searchPhotoname']; $searchLocation = $_POST['searchLocation']; if (isset($_POST['search'])) { //Select records from the database $query = "SELECT * FROM `photos` WHERE `subject` LIKE '%" . $searchSubject . "%' OR `name` LIKE '%" . $searchPhotoname . "%' OR `location` LIKE '%" . $searchLocation . "%' "; } else { $query = "SELECT * FROM photos"; } $result = mysql_query($query); // count the number of rows in the database $num = mysql_num_rows($result); ?> If I leave it at this: $query = "SELECT * FROM `photos` WHERE `subject` LIKE '%" . $searchSubject . "%'"; Then everything works perfect. I wrote the search form below to enable users search other users of a site based on certain criteria like age, race etc. Then I wrote the php script beneath, to execute that search. I decided to make the script very simple, searching only for one criterion for now (ethnicity). So even though I have several fields in the search form, I wrote the script to process only one of those fields(ethnicity). So basically, the script searches all records for members on the site from two tables called images and members(the members table has an "ethnicity column"), who meet the user's ethnicity preference and returns certain columns for all members who meet that preference. Well when I click the submit button, all I get is "Form not submitted". I added that form not submitted clause at the end of the script just after I had tweaked the script in every way possible but got nothing but a blank page every time I submitted the form. So take a look people and tell me what could be going wrong here. Appreciate any help. Code: [Select] <form id="search_profiles_form" action= "profile_search.php"> Seeking A: <select name= "sex"> <option value= "man">Man</option> <option value= "woman">Woman</option> <option value= "both">Both</option> <select> <p> <tab> Age Range: <?php print '<select name= "min_age">'; for ($age = 18; $age <= 99; $age++) { print "\n<option value=\"$age\">$age</option>"; } print '</select>'; ?> </tab> <tab> and: <?php print '<select name= "max_age">'; for ($age = 18; $age <= 99; $age++) { print "\n<option value=\"$age\">$age</option>"; } print '</select>'; ?> </tab> </p> <p>Distance: <select name= "distance"> <option name="5">Within 5 Miles</option> <option name="10">Within 10 Miles</option> <option name="50">Within 50 Miles</option> <option name="100">Within 100 Miles</option> <option name="250">Within 250 Miles</option> <option name="any">Beyond 250 Miles</option> </select> </p> <p>Ethnicity: <select name= "ethnicity"> <option name="black">Black/African Descent</option> <option name="white">Caucasian?European Descent</option> <option name="latino">Hispanic Non White</option> <option name="asian">Asian Descent</option> <option name="native_american">Native American</option> <option name="pacific_islander">Pacific Islander</option> <option name="indian">Indian Descent</option> <option name="middle_east">Middle Eastern</option> <option name="other">Other</option> </select> </p> <p>Last Active: <select name= "last_active"> <option name="0">Online Now</option> <option name="1">1 Hr Ago</option> <option name="5">5 Hrs Ago</option> <option name="24">24 Hrs Ago</option> <option name="1wk">1 Week Ago</option> <option name="3wk">Over 3 Weeks Ago</option> </select> </p> <input type="hidden" name="submitted" value="TRUE"/> <p> <input type ="submit" value="Search!"/> </p> </form> And here goes the php script.

I uploaded a website to the new server, imported the SQL etc etc all works fine apart from the search script. Question is, without posted the code at present, is there anything obvious that could prevent the php search script to stop working on the new server when everything else works fine, and it was working fine on the old server? I assume the PHP versions of both servers are version 5. Older server 1&1, new server eUKhost Many thanks Hi there, new to the forum
Ok so i have a crm and i'm trying to add bits, been pretty succesful at most of it, however i've added a new field "status" and i want to be able to search this field, i've tried copying and changing the existing code, but it doesn't seem to be grabbing it.
So here's some exisiting code (that works and searches the field marked "Address"
'address' => array(
'title' => _l('Address:'),
'field' => array(
'type' => 'text',
'name' => 'search[address]',
'value' => isset($search['address'])?$search['address']:'',
'size' => 15,
)
),
'status' => array(
'title' => _l('Status:'),
'field' => array(
'type' => 'text',
'name' => 'search[status]',
'value' => isset($search['status'])?$search['status']:'',
'size' => 15,
)
),
I thought a simple name change like above would work, but it doesn't pull anything through, anyone got any ideas?
Hey guys for a project im making a search filter function. Only one filter seems to be working and that's the genre filter :(
This is my code:
function filterFilms(){
global $conn;
$loop = 0;
if(isset($_POST['titel']) && !empty($_POST['titel'])){
$titel = sanatize($_POST['titel']);
}
if(isset($_POST['genre']) && !empty($_POST['genre'])){
$genre = sanatize($_POST['genre']);
}
$sql = "SELECT TOP 20 *
From
Movie Inner Join
Movie_Director On Movie_Director.movie_id = Movie.movie_id
Inner Join
Movie_Genre On Movie_Genre.movie_id = Movie.movie_id
Inner Join
Person On Movie_Director.person_id = Person.person_id";
if(isset($titel) && !empty($titel)){
if($loop == 0){
$sql .= " WHERE ( title = ':titel' OR title like ':titel')";
$loop++;
}
else{

Hi I'm working on a database search for a product but the products can be narrowed down to the client will get exactly what they're after, i've got a good amount of it working and sorted but the thing i'm stuck on is that you can get the products in an alternate finish, so you can get Brass, Nickel, Stainless Steel and what i have will only work if the database only has one option within the field value in the MySQL, but if i have Brass, Nickel in the value and search Brass it won't bring it back, i'm a little bit stuck on how to fix this. Here is the code i've got for that like i say works if there is only one field in the MySQL, any help would be good. Thanks <?php include_once("mysql.php"); if (isset($_GET['Code_Of_Installation'])){ $Code_Of_Installation = $_GET['Code_Of_Installation']; $Gland_Material = $_GET['Gland_Material']; $Application_Category = $_GET['Application_Category']; $Cable_Type = $_GET['Cable_Type']; $Sealing_Configiration = $_GET['Sealing_Configiration']; $Approvals = $_GET['Approvals']; $Onshore_Offshore = $_GET['Onshore_Offshore']; $where = array(); if ($Code_Of_Installation != '') $where['Code_Of_Installation'] = $Code_Of_Installation; if ($Gland_Material != '') $where['Gland_Material'] = $Gland_Material; if ($Application_Category != '') $where['Application_Category'] = $Application_Category; if ($Cable_Type != '') $where['Cable_Type'] = $Cable_Type; if ($Sealing_Configiration != '') $where['Sealing_Configiration'] = $Sealing_Configiration; if ($Approvals != '') $where['Approvals'] = $Approvals; if ($Onshore_Offshore != '') $where['Onshore_Offshore'] = $Onshore_Offshore; $GLOBALS['r'] = smart_select('*','Search',$where); include("search-results.php"); } else { include("search-form.php"); } Hi, I have been trying for 2 days to get this to work.

I require a page to be added to my website. This page will facilitate a refined search via Google, Bing and Yahoo search engine simultaneously , show the top 5 of each engine. Is this possible using php ? Thank's Hello, Does anyone know a tutorial I can follow to create my own search engine over the items I have in my SQL database? I find a lot of tutorials but they are all 'one word searches' which means if you type two words you will get all results that contain either word (too many hits). If the search engine tutorial displays result with AJAX even better. Thanks for help. df I have code to search a database of members, I can search by lastname but having a little problem. I want to be able to search by lastname starting with the first letter. (ie: a or b or c or d and so on). As it is right now I can only search by first letter of last name if I add % to the search (ie: a% b% c%) will give me all members with the last names starting with the approiate letter designation. I'm not sure how to handle this, any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I am working on a php script for searching a database table. I am really new to this, so I used the this tutorial http://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorial/simple-sql-search I managed to get all the things working the way I wanted, except one important and crucial thing. Let me explain. My table consist of three columns, like this: ID(bigint20) title(text) link (varchar255) ============================= ID1 title1 link-1 ID2 title2 link-2 etc... Like I said, I managed to make the script display results for a search query based on the title. Want I want it to do more, but I can't seem to find the right resource to learn how, is to place a "Download" button under each search result with its corresponding link from the table. Here is the code I used. <?php $dbHost = 'localhost'; // localhost will be used in most cases // set these to your mysql database username and password. $dbUser = 'user'; $dbPass = 'pass'; $dbDatabase = 'db'; // the database you put the table into. $con = mysql_connect($dbHost, $dbUser, $dbPass) or trigger_error("Failed to connect to MySQL Server. Error: " . mysql_error()); mysql_select_db($dbDatabase) or trigger_error("Failed to connect to database {$dbDatabase}. Error: " . mysql_error()); // Set up our error check and result check array $error = array(); $results = array(); // First check if a form was submitted. // Since this is a search we will use $_GET if (isset($_GET['search'])) { $searchTerms = trim($_GET['search']); $searchTerms = strip_tags($searchTerms); // remove any html/javascript. if (strlen($searchTerms) < 3) { $error[] = "Search terms must be longer than 3 characters."; }else { $searchTermDB = mysql_real_escape_string($searchTerms); // prevent sql injection. } // If there are no errors, lets get the search going. if (count($error) < 1) { $searchSQL = "SELECT title, link FROM db WHERE title LIKE '%{$searchTermDB}%'"; $searchResult = mysql_query($searchSQL) or trigger_error("There was an error.<br/>" . mysql_error() . "<br />SQL Was: {$searchSQL}"); if (mysql_num_rows($searchResult) < 1) { $error[] = "The search term provided {$searchTerms} yielded no results."; }else { $results = array(); // the result array $i = 1; while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($searchResult)) { $results[] = "{$row['title']}<br /> Download - this is the button I want to link to the title results - and maybe other links too - <br /> "; $i++; } } } } function removeEmpty($var) { return (!empty($var)); } ?> <?php echo (count($error) > 0)?"The following had errors:<br /><span id=\"error\">" . implode("<br />", $error) . "</span><br /><br />":""; ?> <form method="GET" action="search?" name="searchForm"> Search for title: <input type="text" name="search" value="<?php echo isset($searchTerms)?htmlspecialchars($searchTerms):''; ?>" /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Search" /> </form> <?php echo (count($results) > 0)?"Rezultate lucrari de licenta sau disertatie pentru {$searchTerms} :<br /><br />" . implode("", $results):""; ?> $results = array(); // the result array $i = 1; while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($searchResult)) { $results[] = "{$row['title']}<br /> Download - this is the button I want to link to the title results - and maybe other links too - <br /> "; $i++; I would like the results to be displayed like this Results for SearchItem: Result 1 Download | Other link Result 2 Download | Other link etc.... or something like this. So, how do I add the data from the link row into a text(Dowload), within an <a href> tag (well, at least I guess it would go this way) ? My first tries (fueled by my lack of knowledge) where things like $results[] = "{$row['title']}<br /> <a href="{$row['link']}">Download</a> <br /> "; but I keep getting lots of errors, and then I don't know much about arrays and stuff (except basic notions); So there it is. I am really stuck and can't seem to find any workaround for this. Any suggestions? (examples, documentation, anything would do, really) Thanks, Radu I am developing a intranet forum in Php and MySQL and I am using ajax to display searched results on the same page but right now I am using query LIKE text% to search in database which is slower. but I want to make it fast search engin which can parse *,+ and show result. Since I am using ajax i am not able to use free search engin,so if possible pls provide a complete solution Hello, I'm developing a website that asks the user to submit a keyword for a search. The results should display matches for this keyword, but also show matches for related keywords (in order of relevenace!). I'm planning on building up a library of which search terms users use in the same sessions (e.g. if someone searches for "it jobs" and "php jobs", I'll know the terms are correlated), and I'll also measure the click-through rates of the items on the results list. I've been spending all weekend trying to map out the design for this but it's proving incredibly complicated and I think the solution is likely to be on the internet somewhere already?! Please could someone point me in the right direction if you've come accross this problem before? Thanks a million, Stu Friends, I want to extract the Search Keyword from the URL, a visitor came from.
