Ch0cu3r Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 You need to use curly braces for code blocks { and }. Not parenthesesis ( and ) if($number_of_result < 1) echo "No result found. Please try with other keyword."; else { // open curly brace //results found here and display them while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { // open curly brace $title = $row["title"]; $link = $row["link"]; echo "<div id='search-result'>"; echo "<div id='title'" . $title . "</div>"; echo "<br />"; echo "<div id='link'" . $link . "</div>"; echo "</div>"; } // close curly brace } // close curly brace ?> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
