Hi guys,

I have a small problem here...
There is a customer id field and a search button in one page.

In my database there is a table called "customer" which contains fields of customer_id, full_name, name_with_initials, address, contact_number and gender. The table is filled with record of each customer separately.

I want something likes this to be done. If the user selects customer id 1 and click on search button the details of that customer should appear for the verifying purposes. How this could be done in php?

Thanks,
Heshan.

@chrishea, thanks for your tutorial.

I have made a search, but it does not provide an output. Instead it outputs a blank customer detail form. Anyone can help me out to find the error.....

<?php
$connect=mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
mysql_select_db("bank",$connect) or die ("could not select database");
?>
