floridaflatlander Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 You could just use a table and sort any way you like if there aren't to many. Or use something simple in your sql like like. LIKE '%$first-name%' or something like that. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/234090-php-directory/#findComment-1203198 Share on other sites More sharing options...
