Morning everyone.
I've read around the subject of searching and although using the FULLTEXT
capability of MySQL might be the proper way of doing this I feel it's
somewhat limited and have decided to use a simple select procedure.
I'm sure there's a better way of doing this, as I'm quite new to MySQL and
even newer to searches, However - here's my conundrum:
I'm declaring variables at the top of my query like so:
Code:
$WorkPermit == '" . $_POST["WorkPermit"] . "';
And then execute the query like so:
Code:
SELECT * FROM MembersData
WHERE `Work_Permit_Rqd`
LIKE '$WorkPermit'
But I have many other fields that the searcher can use. What do I do if they
leave this field blank...?
I appreciate that I should be using the MATCH function but I'm not entirely
happy with the way it searches.
What I need to do is actually omit a field (s) from the search if the value
the searcher submitted was NULL.
For example:
Search field X and Y and Z
and if x or Y are null
continue...
Am I explaining this OK...?
Any suggestions gratefully received.
