Hi. I am having problems with a script I wrote which searches keywords from a field in a mysql db table.
It is a very simple, one-page script. My site is a toplist, very basic, still in it's infancy. When I go to the page, key in the keywords and press submit, the head, body etc. part of the result script is shown, but no results. , although there are rows in my database containing the `keyword` field data. Below is the script, please see if you find any errors, it could be that I just made a stupid mistake. <?php echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>"; echo "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0//EN\" \"http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/xhtml-mobile10.dtd\";>"; echo "<html xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\";>"; error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE); $pwd = $_GET["pwd"]; $uid = $_GET["uid"]; $action = $_GET["action"]; $cid = $_GET["cid"]; $sid = $_GET["sid"]; $var = $_GET["q"]; include ("function.php"); include ("config.php"); connect($dbserver,$dbname,$dbuser,$dbpass); /////////////////////////////////////////////Search main page if(!isset($var)){ echo "<head>"; echo "<title>Search Engine</title>"; echo "<style type=\"text/css\"> .m3 {background-color: #291C6F;} .n1 {background-color: #A0A0A0;} .n2 {background-color: #888888;} .c2 {color: #000000;} .m2 {color: #91D0FF;} body {font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #ffffff; background-color: #000033; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;} .ct1 {font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #800080;} .cre {background-color: #1300A4; padding: 2px 2px 2px 2px; margin: 3px 0 0; font-size: 12px; color:#000000; text-align: center; border-width:1px 0; border-style:solid; border-color:#000000;} </style>"; echo "</head>"; echo "<body>"; echo "<table>"; echo "<div class=\"cre\">"; echo "<b>Search Engine</b></div>"; echo "<form method=\"GET\" action=\"search.php?uid=$uid&pwd=$pwd\">"; ///the uid and pwd is nessecary cause my member features are very basic and the urls is used to keep the user 'logged in' echo "Keywords: <input type=\"text\" name=\"q\" /><br/>"; echo "<input type=\"submit\" name=\"Submit\"/>"; echo "</form>"; echo "</table>"; echo "<div class=\"cre\"><img src=\"images/home.gif\" alt=\"*\"/><a href=\"index.php?uid=$uid&pwd=$pwd\">Home</a></div>"; echo "</body>"; echo "</html>"; } ///////////////////////////////////////////////////Display Results if(isset($var)){ $var = $_GET["q"]; $trimmed = trim($var); //trim whitespace from the stored variable echo "<head>"; echo "<title>Search Results</title>"; echo "<style type=\"text/css\"> .m3 {background-color: #291C6F;} .n1 {background-color: #A0A0A0;} .n2 {background-color: #888888;} .c2 {color: #000000;} .m2 {color: #91D0FF;} body {font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #ffffff; background-color: #000033; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;} .ct1 {font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #800080;} .cre {background-color: #1300A4; padding: 2px 2px 2px 2px; margin: 3px 0 0; font-size: 12px; color:#000000; text-align: center; border-width:1px 0; border-style:solid; border-color:#000000;} </style>"; echo "</head>"; echo "<body>"; echo "<div class=\"cre\">"; echo "<b>Search Results</b></div>"; echo "<table>"; // Get the search variable from URL // check for an empty string and display a message. if ($trimmed == "") { echo "Please enter a search..."; exit; } if($pg==0)$pg=1; $pg--; $lmt = $pg*20; $pg++; $cou =$lmt+1; $scount = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table WHERE keywords like \"%$trimmed%\" AND banned='0' AND hitsin >= '2'")); $pgs = ceil($scount[0]/20); // Build SQL Query $sql = "SELECT * FROM table WHERE keywords like \"%$trimmed%\" AND banned='0' and hits_in >='2' ORDER by hin DESC LIMIT ".$lmt.", 20;"; // EDIT HERE and specify your table and field names for the SQL query $sites=mysql_query($sql); while ($site = mysql_fetch_array($sites)) { $dscr =htmlspecialchars($site[11]); $snm=htmlspecialchars($site[1]); echo "<tr><td align=\"left\"><a href=\"index.php?action=vsite&sid=$site[0]&uid=$uid&pwd=$pwd\">$snm</a></td></tr>"; echo "<tr><td align=\"left\">$dscr</td></tr>"; $cou++; } $npage = $pg+1; $ppage = $pg-1; if($pg<$pgs) //this is just for clicking on the site's name when the results are displayed { $nlink = "<a href=\"index.php?action=vsites&pg=$npage&uid=$uid&pwd=$pwd&cid=$cid\" accesskey=\"1\"><img src=\"images/next.gif\" alt=\"1\"/>Next</a>"; } if($pg >1) { $plink = "<a href=\"index.php?action=vsites&pg=$ppage&uid=$uid&pwd=$pwd&cid=$cid\" accesskey=\"2\"><img src=\"images/prev.gif\" alt=\"2\"/>Prev</a>"; } echo "<tr class=\"m2\"><td align=\"right\">$nlink</td></tr>"; echo "<tr class=\"m2\"><td align=\"left\">$plink</td></tr>"; echo "</table>"; echo "<div class=\"cre\"><img src=\"images/home.gif\" alt=\"*\"/><a href=\"index.php?uid=$uid&pwd=$pwd\">Home</a></div>"; echo "</body>"; echo "</html>"; } ?> Like I said, very basic. I know there must be a screw-up somewhere but I can't seem to find it. Thanks Wikus -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
