PHP - Search Form Results Help
Hi, I have search form which works apart from 1 part, I have set the results limit to 10 per page with a next link if there are more than 10 results, however when the next link is clicked, i get the error 'you do not have a search parameter' which comes from this code:
Code: [Select] if (!isset($var)) { echo "<p>We dont seem to have a search parameter!</p>"; exit; } The next link is defined by the code below: Code: [Select] // check to see if last page if (!((($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 Similar TutorialsHi all, I am new to PHP and am trying to implement a window that opens when a user is trying to validate an organisation on our site. I have an initial page where users can enter data. One of the fields is organisations. This has a button to its right that lets the user search existing organisations in the mysql db. I have the search piece thanks to some code I found and altered. However, instead of a static non-linked list 1,2,3 coming back from the search, I need the search results to be links / or at least "select"-able. When the user chooses the organisation they were referring to that exists in the db I would like the selection to go back to the original php page and populate the organisation field. Ideally without having other data in the original form being lost. Any tips, hints or links would be greatly appreciated. Here is my code: <?php $dbHost = 'localhost'; $dbUser = 'root'; $dbPass = 'mypass'; $dbDatabase = 'mydb'; $con = mysql_connect($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 Organisation_Name FROM vcaccount_contact_organisation WHERE "; // grab the search types. $types = array(); $types[] = isset($_GET['Organisation_Name'])?"`Organisation_Name` LIKE '%{$searchTermDB}%'":''; $types = array_filter($types, "removeEmpty"); // removes any item that was empty (not checked) if (count($types) < 1) $types[] = "`Organisation_Name` LIKE '%{$searchTermDB}%'"; // use the body as a default search if none are checked $andOr = isset($_GET['matchall'])?'AND':'OR'; $searchSQL .= implode(" {$andOr} ", $types) . " ORDER BY `Organisation_Name`"; // order by organisation. $searchResult = mysql_query($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)) { $results[] = "{$i}: {$row['Organisation_Name']}<br /><br />"; $i++; } } } } function removeEmpty($var) { return (!empty($var)); } ?> <html> <title>My Simple Search Form</title> <style type="text/css"> #error { color: red; } </style> <body> <?php echo (count($error) > 0)?"The following had errors:<br /><span id=\"error\">" . implode("<br />", $error) .

The main difficulty I am encountering is that when the browser changes pages, it forgets everything about current data. Perhaps I should include the display of pages inside the HTML form ? How can I fix this code ? Here is the contents of my searchpage.php file : <?php $keywords=''; $display_search_results=''; if(isset($_POST['search_submitted'])) { $keywords=$_POST['keywords']; $search_results=array(); $totalNbrOfItems=20; for($k=1;$k<=$totalNbrOfItems;$k++) { $search_results[$k]='Your keywords '$keyowrds.' have been found in item number '.$k; } $nbrOfItemsParPage = 5; $nbrOfPages = ceil($totalNbrOfItems / $nbrOfItemsParPage); // Compute current page $current_page = (isset($_GET['page']))?intval($_GET['page']):1; $display_pages=($nbrOfPages<2)?'<p>Page : ':'<p>Pages : '; for ($i = 1 ; $i <= $nbrOfPages ; $i++) { if ($i == $current_page) //No link to the current page { $display_pages=$display_pages.$i.' '; } else { $display_pages=$display_pages.'<a href="searchpage.php?'. 'page='.$i.'">'. $i . '</a> '; } } $display_pages=$display_pages.'</p>'; $display_items=''; $start=$nbrOfItemsPerPage*($current_page-1); for($k=1;$k<=$nbrOfItemsParPage;$k++) { $display_items=$display_items.($search_results[$start+$k]).'<br>'; } $display_search_results=$display_pages.$display_items; } echo '<form method="post" action="searchpage.php">'.

'<input type="submit" name="search_submitted" id="search_submitted_id" value="Search" /> '. '</fieldset>'. '</form>'; echo $display_search_results; ?> 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 Hi, I have a problem if users search something which doesn't match the data in the table I'm selecting from. At the moment I'm trying this code: Code: [Select] <?php require_once('inc/global.inc.php'); # search.inc.php /* * This is the search content module. * This page is included by index.php. * This page expects to receive $_GET['terms']. */ // Redirect if this page was accessed directly: if (!defined('BASE_URL')) { // Need the BASE_URL, defined in the config file: require_once ('../includes/config.inc.php'); // Redirect to the index page: $url = BASE_URL . 'index.php?p=search'; // Pass along search terms? if (isset($_GET['terms'])) { $url .= '&terms=' . urlencode($_GET['terms']); } header ("Location: $url"); exit; } // End of defined() IF. // Print a caption: echo '<h2>Search Results</h2>'; // Display the search results if the form // has been submitted. if (isset($_GET['terms']) && ($_GET['terms'] != 'Search...') ) { $terms = $_GET['terms']; $dbc = mysqli_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME) or die *('Error connecting to MySQL server'); // Query the database. $query = "SELECT * FROM product WHERE title LIKE '%$terms%'"; // Fetch the results. //$row = mysqli_fetch_array($result); // Print the results: $result=mysqli_query($dbc,$query); if ($result == 0){ echo "<h3>Sorry,</h3>"; echo "<p>your search: "" .$terms. "" returned zero results</p>"; } while($row=mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) { $output[] = '<ul>'; $output[] = '<li>'.$row['title'] .': £'.$row['price'].'<br /><img src="'.$row['img'].'" alt="'.$row['title'].'" /></li>'; $output[] = '</ul>'; } echo join('',$output); } else { // Tell them to use the search form. echo '<p class="error">Please use the search form at the top of the window to search this site.</p>'; } ?> But I'm getting this error: Object of class mysqli_result could not be converted to int So that little if statement here doesn't work: Code: [Select] if ($result == 0){ echo "<h3>Sorry,</h3>"; echo "<p>your search: "" .$terms. "" returned zero results</p>"; } Is there another way I can display no search matched results? Thank you for reading, Andrew. I am trying to write a script that will allow me visitors to my site to search my database for items. I followed a tutorial that I had found and tweaked it to fit my needs. I am not getting any results it keeps telling that there was no search results found. Even though I have the items that I have been testing on in my database. I have two files the main search.php file and the search_func.php file Here is the search.php file Code: [Select] <form method='post' action='search.php'> <fieldset> <input type='text' name='search' id='search' value='type name here'/> <input type='submit' name='search_submit' id='search_submit' value='search'/> </fieldset> </form> <?php include('includes/search_func.php'); if(isset($_POST['search'])) { $keywords = mysql_real_escape_string(htmlentities(trim($_POST['search']))); $errors = array (); if (empty($keywords )){ $errors[] = 'Please enter a search term'; } else if (strlen($keywords ) < 3 ) { $errors[] = 'Search term must be more then three characters long'; } else if (search_results($keywords == false)) { $errors[] = 'Your search for ' .$keywords . ' showed no results'; } if (empty($errors)) { $results = search_results($keywords ); $results_num = count($results); $suffix = ($results_num != 1) ? 's' : ''; echo 'Your search for <strong>'. $keywords .'</strong> returned <strong>' .$results_num.'</strong> result'.$suffix.''; foreach($results as $result) { echo $result['first']; } } else { foreach($errors as $error){ echo $error; } } } ?> Here is the search_func.php file Code: [Select] <?php include('includes/config.php'); connect(); function search_results($keywords ) { $returned = array(); $where = ""; $keywords = preg_split('/[\s+]/', $keywords ); $total = count($keywords ); foreach($keywords as $key=>$keyword) { $where .= "`l_name` LIKE '%$keyword%'"; if($key != ($total - 1)){ $where .= "OR"; } } $results = "SELECT `l_name`,`f_name`,`image`,`item_return` FROM `ttmautos` WHERE $where"; $results_num = ($results = mysql_query($results)) ? mysql_num_rows($results): 0 ; if ($results_num === 0) { return false; } else { while($results_row = mysql_fetch_assoc($results)) { $returned_results[] = array( 'last' => $results_row['l_name'], 'first' => $results_row['f_name'], 'image' => $results_row['image'], 'item' => $results_row['item_return'] ); } return $returned_results; } } ?> If anyone could give me an idea of what I am doing wrong I would appreciate it. What I expect: - The function to loop output all of the rows which match the search results. The problems: - Only 1 row is matched. - Notice: Undefined index: id in G:\xampp\htdocs\xampp\dsa\search_func.php on line 57 - The image is not showing Line 57: Code: [Select] $id = $_REQUEST['id']; Entire Code: Code: [Select] <?php /* return the details of an employee parameter empno - employee number eg empHTML.php?empno=7521 This is very basic e.g no error checking */ function search($dbc, $id) { if (isset($_GET['terms']) && ($_GET['terms'] != 'Search...') ) { $terms = $_GET['terms']; $dbc = mysqli_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME) or die *('Error connecting to MySQL server'); $query = "SELECT * FROM stick, location, identification WHERE make LIKE '%$terms%' AND stick.sid = location.lid AND identification.stickID = stick.sid AND identification.stickID = $id"; $result=mysqli_query($dbc,$query); $num_rows = mysqli_num_rows($result); $output = Array(); $image = mysqli_fetch_object($result); if ($num_rows > 0){ if($result=mysqli_query($dbc,$query)){ $output[] = '<ul>'; $output[] = '<li> Type: '.$image->make .'<br />Size: '.$image->size .$image->type .'<br />Colour: '.$image->colour .

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.

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') ?

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 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 $_GET variables to the URL string when the user chooses to sort the returned search results. Thank you in advance for any suggestions. My code is below: Code: [Select] <?php //////////////////// INITIATE SESSION //////////////////// if (!isset($_SESSION)) { session_start(); } //////////////////// ALLOW ACCESS ONLY TO ADMINISTRATORS //////////////////// if ($_SESSION['person_priveleges'] == 0) { header("location:index.php");

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! Hi All, I have a pagination script that works correctly when a user clicks on a category heading, however when I am using it to try an display search results it does not take into account the set of records to display per page, it just shows all results. <?php echo '<h3>Search Results</h3><br />'; $query = "SELECT count(*) from merchants WHERE name LIKE '%$_GET[q]%' OR short like '%$_GET[q]%' OR full like '%$_GET[q]%' OR keywords like '%$_GET[q]%'"; $row=mysql_fetch_assoc(mysql_query($query)); $total_records = $row['count(*)']; $records_per_page = 5; $total_pages = ceil($total_records / $records_per_page); $page = intval($p); if ($page < 1 || $page > $total_pages) $page = 1; $offset = ($page - 1) * $records_per_page; $limit = " LIMIT $offset, $records_per_page"; $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM merchants WHERE name LIKE '%$_GET[q]%' OR short like '%$_GET[q]%' OR full like '%$_GET[q]%' OR keywords like '%$_GET[q]%' ORDER BY m_id DESC") ; echo mysql_error() ; while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)){ $name = $row['name']; $short = $row['short']; $per = $row['percent']; $m_id = $row['m_id']; ?> <div id="cbbox"> <a href="viewm.php?m_id=<?php echo $m_id;?>"> <div class="cbname"> <?php echo $name;?> - Up to <?php echo $per ;?>% Cashback Available </div> <div class="cbimage"> <img src="pimage/<?php echo $name;?>.gif" height="50px" width="100px" /> </div> <div class="cbshort"> <?php echo $short;?> </div> </a> <div class="cbtweet"> <a href="http://twitter.com/home/?status=Get up to <?php echo $per;?> percent Cashback on purchase from <?php echo $name;?> http://goo.gl/PLkp"><img src="images/cbtweet.png" width="90" height="50" alt="Tweet This" /></a> </div></div> <br /><br /> <?php } if($total_records > 5) { for ($i = 1; $i <= $total_pages; $i++) { echo "<a title='page $i p=$i'>Page $i - </a>"; } } ?> </div> if I echo out $total_records it displays the correct amount (7 in the case I am looking at) Any ideas? Hi, I have been trying for 2 days to get this to work. I am trying to put in a list of search keywords in the form, run a LIKE query on the database, and echo out all of the matching terms. Please if someone could please show me how to echo out this information I would be very grateful. Thank you.

Is this possible? if so can you help me. Thanks hello. i have a search box that will display some results. I also have a drop down list with values "1" and "2". the values for each results are stored into database in a "req" field. Code: [Select] <select name="req" id="req"> <option value="1">yes</option> <option value="2">no</option> </select> $sql = 'SELECT * FROM topic WHERE (Title LIKE '."'%$search1%') AND req='1' what am i missing. thanks Hello friends, Posting this thread after many months. Well I am making a small script in which on first page there will be a text box with button. What I want to have is, When we enter any keyword, like "yahoo" in textbox and click on submit button, on next page, there should be top 10 domain names from google search. One of the most important is it should have option to select pages from specific countries like from google.co.uk or google.com or google.jp, this should be on first page. I dont know how to fetch first 10 results domain names / URL and insert it in PHP variable and populate in table. Need help Hi, I have a searchbar which looks for a value in my tables, it works great but i want to know how i can make the results of the search clickable; go to a page relevent to that search, let me explain in more depth. User searches for a postcode, script finds and displays the postcode on the next page, user clicks the result postcode to goto the next page. What im stuck with is how to take that result and automatically display it on the clicked "final" page? Search script: Code: [Select] <?php // Get the search variable from URL $var = @$_GET['q'] ; $trimmed = trim($var); //trim whitespace from the stored variable // rows to return $limit=10; // check for an empty string and display a message. if ($trimmed == "") { echo "<p>Please enter a search...</p>"; exit; } // check for a search parameter if (!isset($var)) { echo "<p>We dont seem to have a search parameter!</p>"; exit; } //connect to your database ** EDIT REQUIRED HERE ** mysql_connect("xxxxx","xxxx","xxxx"); //(host, username, password) //specify database ** EDIT REQUIRED HERE ** mysql_select_db("removalspacelogin") or die("Unable to select database"); //select which database we're using // Build SQL Query $query = "(SELECT postcode FROM freelistings WHERE postcode like '%$trimmed%') UNION (SELECT postcode FROM basicpackage WHERE postcode like '%$trimmed%') UNION (SELECT postcode FROM premiumuser WHERE postcode like '%$trimmed%') ORDER BY postcode"; // EDIT HERE and specify your table and field names for the SQL query $numresults=mysql_query($query); $numrows=mysql_num_rows($numresults); $result = mysql_query($query) or die("<b>Query:</b> $query<br><b>Error</b>: " . mysql_error()); // If we have no results, offer a google search as an alternative if ($numrows == 0) { echo "<h4>Results</h4>"; echo "<p>Sorry, your search: "" . $trimmed . "" returned zero results</p>"; echo "<p><a href=\"http://www.google.com/search?q=" . $trimmed . "\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Look up " . $trimmed . " on Google\">Click here</a> to try the search on google</p>"; } // next determine if s has been passed to script, if not use 0 if (empty($s)) { $s=0; } // get results $query .= " limit $s,$limit"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die("Couldn't execute query"); // display what the person searched for echo "<p>You searched for: "" . $var . ""</p>"; // begin to show results set echo "Results for $q"; $count = 1 + $s ; // now you can display the results returned while ($row= mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $title = $row['postcode']; echo " $title" ; $count++ ; } $currPage = (($s/$limit) + 1); //break before paging echo "<br />"; // next we need to do the links to other results if ($s>=1) { // bypass PREV link if s is 0 $prevs=($s-$limit); print " <a href=\"$PHP_SELF?s=$prevs&q=$var\"><< Prev 10</a>  "; } // calculate number of pages needing links $pages=intval($numrows/$limit); // $pages now contains int of pages needed unless there is a remainder from division if ($numrows%$limit) { // has remainder so add one page $pages++; } // check to see if last page if (!((($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>"; } $a = $s + ($limit) ; if ($a > $numrows) { $a = $numrows ; } $b = $s + 1 ; echo "<p>Showing results $b to $a of $numrows</p>"; ?> <form method="post" action="localarea.php"> <a href="localarea.php"><?php echo """ .$var. ""</p>";?></a> </form> [\code] The form at the bottom im guessing is where i should take the $var from but how exactly? or if not where should it be pulled from to display on the next page? I want this "next" page because ideally there would be lots of results in postcode, so the user can choose which one is more relevant to them and go to that specific page with all the companies within that postcode. Hope this helps for a better understanding of what im trying to achieve, its just implementing it in? |
