Hello all,

 

Well this has been a day, let me tell you.

 

I have been struggling all day (after many such days and many such weeks) with a bit of code that would allow me to have an SQL query pick data from my DB based on input from a query string. I have been beating this for weeks as I developed my  other pages and this one has been the main hurdle.

 

I'm reasonably new with php and MySQL. I have posted pleas for help and guidance on two other forums, one of which has given me some good help. BUT, with this one simple problem, no one jumped up to help.

 

So, out of sheer frustration, I began searching for some new php forums and after Googling, I found phpfreaks. THIS WAS THE BEST PART OF THE DAY FOR ME!

 

I browsed the forums here and checked out the MySQL thread. There, a member had posted code along with their question and it had to do with a query, so I studied it...and found the missing link for my code.

 

I added this oh-so-simple yet oh-so-elusive bit o' code to my page and voila! It finally worked.

 

I am elated, giddy to the point of screaming my head off, and I owe it to phpfreaks. This is now my favorite forum.

 

I am so, so grateful for this resource. After pleading, searching and going crazy trying everything that DIDN'T work, I can finally get this done.

 

COULD NOT have done it today without this forum. THANK ALL OF YOU who are involved with this place.

 

CHEERS!

 

Sincerely,
