Hi Every body
Once again I'm in problem and want some help from you all
I have written a small code to search a particular value in MySql database and then to display the record based on that value - Like to search a Employee code in database and then to display detail of that Employee in same page after that if user want he/she can delete that record. But I am getting 2 error
Notice: Undefined index: dtext in C:\catasset\deleteadministrator.php on line 53

Warning: mysql_fetch_array() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in C:\catasset\deleteadministrator.php on line 55

Please see the code mentioned here and I am attaching files for better understanding.

Thanx in advance Please help me...!

The first notice you get is because $_POST[dtext] may not have been set. This will result in an invalid query, after which it will fail, and put false in $result.

Since $result is false (because the query failed), mysql_fetch_array cannot be called.

The solutions would be:
1. Check if $_POST has a valid value, if so, then build the query and execute it.
2. After the query you should check if $result is false. If it is, then there was an error. If it is not, you can retrieve the results.

Hope this helps.

Thats just because u didn't check for the existence of POST variables in ur code.
When u execute ur script for the first time, u have no value submitted as POST and thus recieve an error...
Solution to this is... before running the query for retrieval, check if u have POST variables set.. Something like this--

if (isset($_POST['dtext'])){
//ur retrieval and display code goes here
}

This should solve it..
Cheers!!

Thak you for your consideration...
Should I put this code in between your code

if (isset($_POST['dtext']))
{
$qry = "SELECT * FROM users_table where cust_id = $_POST[dtext]" or die("Display Error: ".mysql_error()); 
$result = mysql_query($qry); 
        while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result))
	{
	echo " <tr>
		<td><input name=t1 type=text id=t14 value=$row[0]  ></td>
		<td><input name=t2 type=text id=t2 value=$row[1]  ></td>
		<td><input name=t3 type=text id=t3 value=$row[2]  ></td>
		<td><input name=t4 type=text id=t4 value=$row[3]  ></td>
		<td><input name=t5 type=text id=t5 value=$row[4]  ></td>
		<td><input name=t6 type=text id=t6 value=$row[5]  ></td>
		<td><input name=t7 type=text id=t7 value=$row[6] ></td>
		<td><input name=t8 type=text id=t8 value=$row[7] ></td>
		<td><input name=t9 type=text id=t9 value=$row[8] ></td>
		<td><input name=t10 type=text id=t10 value=$row[9]  ></td>
		<td><input name=t11 type=text id=t11 value=$row[10] ></td>
	           </tr>";
	}

}
