Hi, Tried that: <form method="POST" action="<?=$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]?>"> <p>Search for: </p> Books: <input type="checkbox" name='search[]' value="books"> Movies: <input type="checkbox" name='search[]' value="movies"> Outdoor: <input type="checkbox" name='search[]' value="outdoor"> Indore: <input type="checkbox" name='search[]' value="indore"> </p> <p><input type='submit' value='Search'></p> </form> But nothing happens! I think that there also needs to be done some recoding in the script, right?

I'm about to update my search script. The search engine searches in my database where I ask it to search. What is new is I want do some search words, that the users can check in a checkbox, if he wants to use the word in the search. As for now my search engine works, the only problem is that it only searches the last word and not all of the checked words. My formula looks like this: <form method="POST" action="<?=$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]?>"> <p>Search for: </p> Books: <input type="checkbox" name='search' value="books"> Movies: <input type="checkbox" name='search' value="movies"> Outdoor: <input type="checkbox" name='search' value="outdoor"> Indore: <input type="checkbox" name='search' value="indore"> </p> <p><input type='submit' value='Search'></p> </form> The php code looks like: <?php if(isset($_POST['search'])) { $connx = mysql_connect('localhost', '*******', ',*********') or die("connx"); $db = mysql_select_db('*********') or die(mysql_error()); # convert to upper case, trim it, and replace spaces with "|": $search = mysql_real_escape_string($search); $search = strtoupper(preg_replace('/\s+/', '|', ($_POST['search']))); # create a MySQL REGEXP for the search: $regexp = "REGEXP '[[:<:]]($search)[[:>:]]'"; $query = "SELECT * FROM `keywords` WHERE UPPER(`keywords01`) $regexp OR ". "`keywords02` $regexp OR ". "`keywords03` $regexp OR ". "`keywords04` $regexp"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die($query . " - " . mysql_error()); echo "<table>\n"; while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { echo "<tr>"; echo "<td><img src=../{$row['type']}/{$row['folder']}/{$row['date']}-{$row['num']}/{$row['thumbimage']} border=1></td>"; echo "<td>{$row['name']}</td>"; echo "<td>{$row['date']}</td>"; echo "<td><a href=../view.php?id={$row['id']} target=blank>VIEW</a></td>"; echo "</tr>\n"; } } else { echo "<p>Sorry, no results matched your search.</p>"; } ?> Are there someone, who can figure out, why it is only the last marked checkboxs word that are searched and not all marked words and how do I get it to search for all marked words? Hope someone can help.
