You're missing an ending parenthesis on almost all of those conditions. You don't need to disambiguate so much.
can just be

if ( (strlen($Type) > 0) && (strlen($Brand) > 0 ) && (strlen($Size) > 0 ) && (strlen($Price) > 0 ) )

if ( strlen($Type) > 0 && strlen($Brand) > 0 && strlen($Size) > 0 && strlen($Price) > 0 )

...PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
$sql= "select * from PRODUCTS where Type="$Type" and Brand="$Brand" and Size="$Size" order by ProductID"); ...
PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
$sql= "select * from PRODUCTS where Type=" . $Type . " and Brand=" . $Brand . " and Size=" . $Size . " order by ProductID";
This statement would be better written as:
PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
$sql= "select * from PRODUCTS where Type='$Type' and Brand='$Brand' and Size='$Size' order by ProductID";
PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
$sql= "select * from PRODUCTS where Type='" . $Type . "' and Brand='" . $Brand . "' and Size='" . $Size . "' order by ProductID";
MySQL prefers values in queries to be in single quotes.
Next, on line 65,
PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
$result=mysql_query("$sql");
