Question Re: mysql search and display data help....

  #5  
Oct 24th, 2007
I'm trying to do just this, but when a persons profile loads, it grabs their user_id as the page is loading, then searches the database for that user_id, and displays the rows it found that contained that user_id.

basically the same thing here, but without the search form.

would i need to change this line, or delete it?:

Help with Code Tags 
 $search = "%" . $_POST["search"] . "%";
in the previously posted code:
Help with Code Tags 
<?php
  $search = "%" . $_POST["search"] . "%";

  mysql_connect ("localhost", "myuser", "mypassword");
  mysql_select_db ("mydatabase");

  $query = "SELECT mycolumn FROM mytable WHERE mycolumn LIKE '$search'";
  $result = mysql_query ($query);
  if ($result) {
    while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result)) {
      echo $row[0] . "<br>";
    }
  }
?>
