Hello,

 

The following code is supposed to display 20 search results per page.  The problem is the browser fails to load the next set of 20 results when I click the "Next 20" link and, instead, simply redisplays the current page.  The relevant code ($PHP_SELF?s=$n&q=$var&catid=$catid) is at the bottom of the code below.  Can anyone help me?  Thanks in advance.

 

 

 

 

 

//open database connection

$connections = mysql_connect($hostname_logon, $username_logon, $password_logon) or die ( "Unabale to connect to the database" );

//select database

mysql_select_db($database_logon) or die ( "Unable to select database!" );

 

//specify how many results to display per page

$limit = 20;

 

// Get the search variable from URL

  $var = @$_GET['q'] ;

//trim whitespace from the stored variable

  $trimmed = trim($var);

//separate key-phrases into keywords

  $trimmed_array = explode(" ",$trimmed);

 

// check for an empty string and display a message.

if ($trimmed == "") {

  $resultmsg =  "<p>Search Error</p><p>Please enter a search...</p>" ;

  }

 

// check for a search parameter

if (!isset($var)){

  $resultmsg =  "<p>Search Error</p><p>We don't seem to have a search parameter! </p>" ;

  }

// Build SQL Query for each keyword entered

foreach ($trimmed_array as $trimm){

   

// EDIT HERE and specify your table and field names for the SQL query

    $query = "SELECT * FROM default_table WHERE biz_id LIKE \"%$trimm%\" OR biz_name LIKE  \"%$trimm%\" OR state LIKE \"%$trimm%\" ORDER BY biz_id  DESC" ;

    // Execute the query to  get number of rows that contain search kewords

    $numresults=mysql_query ($query);

    $row_num_links_main =mysql_num_rows ($numresults);

 

    // next determine if 's' has been passed to script, if not use 0.

    // 's' is a variable that gets set as we navigate the search result pages.

    if (empty($s)) {

        $s=0;

    }

 

      // now let's get results.

      $query .= " LIMIT $s,$limit" ;

      $numresults = mysql_query ($query) or die ( "Couldn't execute query" );

      $row= mysql_fetch_array ($numresults);

 

      //store record id of every item that contains the keyword in the array we need to do this to avoid display of duplicate search result.

      do{

//EDIT HERE and specify your field name that is primary key

          $adid_array[] = $row[ 'biz_id' ];

      }while( $row= mysql_fetch_array($numresults));

} //end foreach

 

if($row_num_links_main == 0 && $row_set_num == 0){

  $resultmsg = "<p>Search results for:" . $trimmed  ."</p><p>Sorry, your search returned zero results</p>" ;

}

  //delete duplicate record id's from the array. To do this we will use array_unique function

  $tmparr = array_unique($adid_array);

  $i=0;

  foreach ($tmparr as $v) {

      $newarr[$i] = $v;

      $i++;

  }

 

// now you can display the results returned. But first we will display the search form on the top of the page

?>

</style></head>

 

 

<form action="search.php" method="get" name="search">

  <div align="center">

      <input name="q" type="text" value=" <?php echo $q; ?> " size="15">

      <input name="search" type="submit" value="Search">

  </div>

</form>

 

<?php

// display what the person searched for.

if( isset ($resultmsg)){

  echo $resultmsg;

  exit();

}else{

  echo "Search results for: " . $var;

}

 

foreach($newarr as $value){

 

// EDIT HERE and specify your table and field names for the SQL query

$query_value = "SELECT * FROM default_table WHERE biz_id = '$value'";

$num_value=mysql_query ($query_value);

$row_linkcat= mysql_fetch_array ($num_value);

$row_num_links= mysql_num_rows ($num_value);

 

//now let's make the keywods bold. To do that we will use preg_replace function.

//EDIT parts of the lines below that have fields names like $row_linkcat[ 'field1' ]

//This script assumes you are searching only 3 fields. If you are searching more fileds make sure that add appropriate line.

  $titlehigh = preg_replace ( "'($var)'si" , "<b>\\1</b>" , $row_linkcat[ 'biz_id' ] );

  $linkhigh = preg_replace ( "'($var)'si" , "<b>\\1</b>" , $row_linkcat[ 'biz_name' ] );

  $linkdesc = preg_replace ( "'($var)'si" , "<b>\\1</b>" , $row_linkcat[ 'state' ] );

 

foreach($trimmed_array as $trimm){

    if($trimm != 'b' ){

//IF you added more fields to search make sure to add them below as well.

        $titlehigh = preg_replace( "'($trimm)'si" ,  "<b>\\1</b>" , $titlehigh);

        $linkhigh = preg_replace( "'($trimm)'si" , "<b>\\1</b>" , $linkhigh);

        $linkdesc = preg_replace( "'($trimm)'si" ,  "<b>\\1</b>" , $linkdesc);

    }

//end highlight

 

?>

<p>

<?php echo $titlehigh; ?><br>

<?php echo $linkhigh; ?><br>

<?php echo $linkdesc; ?>

</p>

 

<?php

}  //end foreach $trimmed_array

 

}  //end foreach $newarr

if($row_num_links_main > $limit){

  // next we need to do the links to other search result pages

      if ($s>=0) { // do not display previous link if 's' is '0'

        $prevs=($s-$limit);

        echo "<div align='left'><a href='$PHP_SELF?s=$prevs&q=$var&catid=$catid'>Previous " .$limit. "</a></div>";

      }

    // check to see if last page

    $slimit =$s+$limit;

      if (!($slimit >= $row_num_links_main) && $row_num_links_main!=0) {

    // not last page so display next link

          $n=$s+$limit;

          echo "<div align='right'><a href='$PHP_SELF?s=$n&q=$var&catid=$catid'>Next " .$limit. "</a></div>";

        }

    }

?>
