PHP - Simple Search Tutorial, Results In A Table?
im a complete novice.
im using one of the tutorials on here to make a simple search form. the bit of script that i think outputs the results is $results = array(); // the result array $i = 1; while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($searchResult)) { $results[] = "{$i}: {$row['placing']},   {$row['racedate']},   {$row['horseid']}<br /><br />"; $i++; how do i make these results appear in a table, and how would i make it so there was a link on the date that clicked would show all the races on that day? sorry i advance as this is probably the most dumb of questions! Similar TutorialsI found this amazing tutorial and i try to change it for a different database, but when i do a search it never finds anything. <?php $dbHost = 'localhost'; // localhost will be used in most cases // set these to your mysql database username and password. $dbUser = 'root'; $dbPass = '123'; $dbDatabase = 'ergasia2'; // 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}.

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 Hello, I'm making a website which includes an articles page. I want users to be able to search for particular articles. For this search function I used the Simple SQL Search tutorial from phpfreaks (http://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorial/simple-sql-search). It's working quite well but i'd like to expand it a little. The most important thing i want changed is what happens when users enters a string which holds multiple words. The function from the tutorial perceives these words as one string and searches for that string as a whole. For example when a user enters 'winter 2012' and an article holds the string 'winter of 2012', the function returns no matches. This is, ofcourse, not the way i'd like it to function. I've managed to seperate the words and search for them individually by using explode and foreach, but now i'm getting duplicate results when an article holds mulitple words from the users' entry string. My idea to fix this was to make an array with the article id's of the articles that have matched, and then to exclude them from the SQL query for the next word from the search string by using 'NOT IN $array' in the where clause. Unfortunately i haven't managed to succeed with this so far and that's why i ask for your help.. This my search function: Code: [Select] function zoekopdracht() { require('dbcon.php'); $zoekopdr = trim($_GET['zzoek']); $zoekopdr = strip_tags($zoekopdr); if (strlen($zoekopdr) < 3) { echo "De zoekopdr moet minimaal 3 karakters bevatten."; } else { $zoekopdr = explode(" ", $zoekopdr); foreach($zoekopdr as $zoekterm) { $zoekopdrDB = mysql_real_escape_string($zoekterm); $searchSQL = "SELECT * FROM n_artikelen WHERE "; $types = array(); $types[] = isset($_GET['zartikel'])?" volledig_artikel LIKE '%{$zoekopdrDB}%'":''; $types[] = isset($_GET['ztitel'])?" titel LIKE '%{$zoekopdrDB}%'":''; $types[] = isset($_GET['zjaar'])?" YEAR(publicatie) LIKE '%{$zoekopdrDB}%'":''; $types = array_filter($types, "removeEmpty"); // removes any item that was empty (not checked) if (count($types) < 1) { $types[] = "volledig_artikel LIKE '%{$zoekopdrDB}%'"; // use the artikel + titel as a default search if none are checked $types[] = "titel LIKE '%{$zoekopdrDB}%'"; } $searchSQL .= implode(" OR ", $types) . " ORDER BY publicatie LIMIT 0,10"; $searchResult = mysql_query($searchSQL) or die(mysql_error()); if (mysql_num_rows($searchResult) < 1) { echo "De zoekopdracht '{$zoekopdr}' heeft geen resultaten."; } else { while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($searchResult, MYSQL_NUM)) { artikelelement($row); // function that outputs the result of $row[] } } } } } Additionally, if this problem is fixed, i'd love to see a way to sort the results on closest match (article which matches two words > article which matches one word). Thanks! 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 Hey guys, need some help real quick. I'm using this walkthrough over at css-tricks, some might be familiar with it by now? Anyway, I've followed the instructions exactly. It's supposed to display a simple form that you fill out and submit, which then updates the MYSQL database. However, whenever i load display.php in my browser, all i get is a blank page, and there are no notifications or errors to be in seen in the console. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hey guys, I'm looking for some sort of tutorial on how to code a search script which would allow users to select number of results per page (and take care of the page 1, page 2, etc. links accordingly) as well as order them by date, most views, etc. I thought I'd be good to do this on my own but my script is looking very dirty and I'm pretty sure it isn't very secure.. anyone ever consult a tutorial with main guidance as how to code the kind of script I'm interested in?? thanks I am trying to write a script that will allow me visitors to my site to search my database for items.

Good Evening, I've been in a trial and error state for the past week trying to figure out how I can put on the pre-made pagination scripts I found on the web, but of no luck. I have just started programming like two weeks ago, and is still trying to understand logics and stuffs so I can get my desired output. So far, everything is doing well except for one - I am really having a hard time to incorporate pagination scripts with my code. To rank myself as a php programmer, I can say I am lower than one, and seemingly, what I want to achieve is an advanced code. Can anyone help me on what pagination code I should try to play with and incorporate with my code? Here's my code so far: <?PHP include("dbconnection.php"); //Include database connection to file $query = "SELECT * FROM records"; if(isset($_POST["btnSearch"])) { $query .= " WHERE last_name LIKE '%".$_POST["search"]."%' OR first_name LIKE '%".$_POST["search"]."%'OR territory LIKE '%".$_POST["search"]."%'OR job_title LIKE '%".$_POST["search"]."%'OR title LIKE '%".$_POST["search"]."%'OR employer LIKE '%".$_POST["search"]."%' ORDER BY territory ASC LIMIT 0,15" ; $result = mysql_query($query, $connection) or die(mysql_error()); } ?> <!-- Start of table --> <table width="760" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <td> <table width="760" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <!-- Table data containing the Asia Logo --> <td width="199" align="center" valign="top"> <a href="login.html"> <img src="asia.gif" alt="" width="152" height="58" border="0" /> </a> </td> <!-- Table data containing Home button --> <td width="176" align="right" valign="bottom"> <a href="main.php"> <img src="Home.jpg" width="104" height="20" border="0"/> </a> </td> <!-- Table data containing View Client button --> <td width="130" align="right" valign="bottom"> <img src="View.jpg" width="104" height="20" border="0"/> </td> <!-- Table data containing the Add Client button --> <td width="146" align="right" valign="bottom"> <a href="add_client.php"> <img src="Add.jpg" width="104" height="20" border="0"/> </a> </td> <!-- Blank table data --> <td width="109" align="right" valign="bottom"> </td> </table> <!-- Table design division and body--> <table width="760" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <td width="200" height="3" bgcolor="#1B1C78"> <img src="images/topspacerblue.gif" alt="" width="1" height="3" /></td> <td width="560" bgcolor="#0076CC"> <img src="images/topspacerlblue.gif" alt="" width="1" height="3" /></td> <tr> <td height="500" colspan="2" align="center" valign="top" bgcolor="#F3FAFE"> <!-- Page contents --> <!-- Search Query --> <br> <form name="form" action="view_client.php" method="post"> <table width="351" border="0"> <tr> <td width="137" align="left" valign="middle"> SEARCH RECORD: </td> <td width="144" align="center" valign="middle"> <input type="text" name="search" /> </td> <td width="56" align="left" valign="middle"> <input type="submit" name="btnSearch" value="Search" /> </td> </tr> </table> <br> <!-- End of search query--> <!-- Start of Search Results--> <table border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" bordercolor="38619E" > <tr> <th width="80" align="center" bgcolor="#E0E8F3">Territory</th> <th width="330" align="center" bgcolor="#E0E8F3">Employer</th> <th width="160" align="center" bgcolor="#E0E8F3">Name</th> <th width="80" align="center" valign="middle" bgcolor="#E0E8F3"> </th> </tr> <?php if($result) { for($i=0; $i<mysql_num_rows($result); $i++) { $id = trim(mysql_result($result, $i, "id")); $territory = trim(mysql_result($result, $i, "territory")); $employer = trim(mysql_result($result, $i, "employer")); $first_name = trim(mysql_result($result, $i, "first_name")); $last_name = trim(mysql_result($result, $i, "last_name")); echo "<tr>"; echo "<td>".$territory."</td>"; echo "<td>".$employer."</td>"; echo "<td>".$last_name.", ".$first_name."</td>"; echo "<td><a href='edit_client.php?id=".$id."'>edit</a> | <a href='delete_client.php?id=".$id."'>delete</a></td>"; echo "</tr>"; } } ?> </table> </form> <!-- End of page --> </td> </tr> </table> </td> <tr> <td height="38"> <table width="760" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <td width="200" height="35" align="center" bgcolor="#1B1C78" class=white> <a href="disclaimer.html"> <font color="#FFFFFF">Legal Disclaimer</font> </a> </td> <td width="560" align="center" bgcolor="#0076CC"> Copyright © 2006 - 2010 Asia.

Okay, I'm wanting to do a search, but until return the info if it has a specific indicator in the chosen field. Let me show you: $query = doquery("SELECT * FROM `orgs` IF `type`='c' ORDER BY name", "orgs"); How do I do that "IF" bit? Obviously this doesn't work. Thanks! I have a page that I am using to search a database. Basically what I want to do is allow the end user to sort by column headings after the search results are returned. The sort code that I am using works fine on a "lesser complicated" page that does not involve $_GET variables. I am not sure however if I adapted it properly. Also, I am having problems adding the new $_GET variables to the URL string when the user chooses to sort the returned search results. Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

exit; } The next link is defined by the code below: Code: [Select] // check to see if last page if (!((($s+$limit)/$limit)==$pages) && $pages!=1) { // not last page so give NEXT link $news=$s+$limit; echo " <a href=\"$PHP_SELF?s=$news&q=$var\">Next 10 >></a>"; } Can anyone see where I have gone wrong with this code without me sending the whole search form? Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks hi, I have a search page with a checkbox $departuk that returns the value "true" if checked. I want to return search results if this returns true and the flag 'Y' is available if ($departuk == "true"){ if ($data[$i]['departuk'] == 'Y'){ $result = $obj->result; } else{ echo "do some thing else"; } else{ echo"there was a problem"; } any pointers / advice is appreciated thanks Hi guys, A beginner at php/mysql here... For a project I'm doing, I would like to display search results with an image, small description, then a 'read more' link. After googling this issue, I can't find much information on it, which surprised me. Someone did mention blobs for images... (whatever they are!) I'm wondering if anyone knows of any tutorials, or has any code to do this? Your help is much appreciated. Thanks. I'm new to php and been trying to follow along with different tutorials to try and build my own site, i followed a tutorial on making a search feature for the site and have it working perfectly, but i want to change the way how to search displays the results. I want to make it display them how there displayed on the index page. here is the index page how there displayed <div id="table"> <table> <tr class="top"> <th>Account</th> <th>Country</th> <th>Info</th> <th>Login</th> <th>Pass</th> <th>Price</th> <th>Buy</th> </tr> <?php $class = 'grey'; ?> <?php $items = getItems(); ?> <?php if(empty ($items)): ?> <h3>No Items Found</h3> <?php else: ?> <?php foreach($items as $item): ?> <?php $class = ($class == 'grey') ? 'grey2' : 'grey'; ?> <tr class="<?php echo $class; ?>"> <td><?php echo $item['item_account']; ?></td> <td><?php echo $item['item_country']; ?></td> <td><?php echo $item['item_info']; ?></td> <td><?php echo maskUser($item['item_login']); ?></td> <td><?php echo maskPass($item['item_pass']); ?></td> <td><?php echo $item['item_price']; ?> </td> <td><form method="post" action="https://sci.libertyreserve.com/"><input type="submit" name="buy" value="Buy" class="button" /></form></td> </tr> <?php endforeach; ?> <?php endif; ?> how the search is display if (strlen($search) <= 2) { echo 'Search keyword is too short.'; } else { echo "You searched for <b>$search</b><hr size='1'>"; $search_exploded = explode(" ", $search); foreach($search_exploded as $search_each) { $x++; if ($x == 1) $construct .= "item_account LIKE '%$search_each%'"; else $construct .= " OR item_account LIKE '%$search_each%'"; } $construct = "SELECT * FROM items WHERE $construct"; $run = mysql_query($construct); $foundnum = mysql_num_rows($run); if ($foundnum == 0) { echo 'No results found.'; } else { echo "$foundnum results found!</p>"; while ($numrows = mysql_fetch_assoc($run)) { $item_id = $numrows['item_id']; $itemAccount = $numrows['item_account']; $itemI = $numrows['item_info']; $itemLogin = $numrows['item_login']; $itemPass = $numrows['item_pass']; $itemPrice = $numrows['item_price']; echo " <b>$itemAccount</b><br /> $itemI <br /> " . maskUser($itemLogin) . '<br />' . maskPass($itemPass, 0) . '<br />'; } } } my question is im not sure how to edit the search code to display the results in the same format as the index page thanks |
