snichols Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 This is a script I inherited. At the moment it just searches a whole DB for a search term. I want to add a drop down so that specific fields are searched. That bit is easy - the PHP coding to select just those fields to search is the problem area. I have attached the code so that you can see - any suggestions?

snichols Posted August 30, 2011 Author Share Posted August 30, 2011 Well, I need to know what part of the code needs to be changed so that it takes the field value you select and only returns the searched value from that field.

trq Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I haven't looked at the code but put simply you would need to insert the required data into the database query.
