This stupid form.. lol Easy tho

[Gayner]

<select>
  <option name="amountonly">Amount ?</option>
  <option>Coffee</option>
  <option>Tea</option>
</select>

 

PHP::

 

if ($ibforums->input['amountonly'])
							   $l = "or LOWER(amount) LIKE '%$search_string%'";
							   else 
							   $l = "5";

 

Am  I missing something? the 5 is to try to see if my input catches it.. it catches if it's like in a submit input type but how do i do it for Value [select] ?

 

Thank!

First, your select element should have the name, rather than one of its options.  Second, your options need values.  Third, what is it you're trying to do exactly?  Putting up random code, malformed HTML, and saying it doesn't work isn't much for the rest of us to go on.

Well my code is:

 

if ($ibforums->input['searchQQ'] == 'amount')
							   $l = "or LOWER(amount) LIKE '%$search_string%'";
							   else 
							   $l = "5";

 

<select name='searchQQ'>
  <option value="amount">Volvo</option>
  <option value="amount5">Saab</option>
  <option value="mercedes">Mercedes</option>
  <option value="audi">Audi</option>
</select><input type="submit" value="Search" />
</form>

 

it's working now and im gonna finish rest of values,

 

this is for when people search they can choose which table they want to search in
