[Search using Dreamweaver GUI]

I wondered whether it was too complex for DW. I can't see many tutorials on this specific topic.

 

As for = or LIKE I want to be able to try them both and compare results.

 

Thanks for your replies.

Thanks for the suggestion but no good - same reply for default variable of 1.

Thanks for the response. The recordset query is (all generated by DW):

 

<?php

$svar_rsrecipes = "0";

if (isset($_GET["txt_searchterms"])) {

$svar_rsrecipes = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_GET["txt_searchterms"] : addslashes($_GET["txt_searchterms"]);

}

mysql_select_db($database_recipes, $recipes);

$query_rsrecipes = sprintf("SELECT * FROM tbl_recipes WHERE tbl_recipes.recipe_detail LIKE %s", $svar_rsrecipes);

$rsrecipes = mysql_query($query_rsrecipes, $recipes) or die(mysql_error());

$row_rsrecipes = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsrecipes);

$totalRows_rsrecipes = mysql_num_rows($rsrecipes);

?>

 

The rest is just echo statements with a loop to display the results.

 

Thanks again for any responses.

My project is a recipe database. I just want to be able to search one field in one table for key words.

 

It would also be easier to do if I can work out how to do it using the Dreamweaver (MX 2004) GUI to do it.

 

SO far I have set a recordset with:

SELECT *

FROM tbl_recipes

WHERE tbl_recipes.recipe_detail LIKE svar

 

Then I've gone on to define the svar variable which is a search variable passed in the URL.

 

Variable name: svar

Default Value: 0

$_GET["txt_searchterms"]

 

When I run the search it returns an error saying Unknown column 'whateversearchtermused' in 'where clause'

 

How can I fix my record set? Is this just a syntax problem?
