Hey all,

 

So I have a search.html with a form which posts to search.php. I am searching for a last name (l_name), and should it find a result, I want the page to display f_name and l_name.

 

I have somewhat accomplished this, except for the fact that search.php displays the f_name, l_name for every user in the database.

 

Here is my code for search.php:

 

<?
//connect to mysql
mysql_connect("localhost","root","xxxxxx"); 

//select database
mysql_select_db("hub_info"); 

$search=$_POST["l_name"];

//get the mysql and store in $result
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ra_info WHERE l_name LIKE '%$search%'");

//grab all the content
while($r=mysql_fetch_array($result))
{	  
   $f_name=$r["f_name"];
   $l_name=$r["l_name"];
   
   //display the row
   echo "<br>$f_name <br> $l_name <br>";
}
?>

 

Any ideas? Thanks!
