13.

14.
$studno = stripslashes($studno);
15.
$birthday = stripslashes($birthday);
16.

17.
$studno = mysql_real_escape_string($studno);
18.
$birthday = mysql_real_escape_string($birthday);
19.

20.
$sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name WHERE studno='$studno' and birthday='$birthday'";
21.

28.
session_register("birthday");
29.
header("location:selectvoter_candidates.php");
30.
}
31.
else {
32.
echo "Invalid Student No. or Birthday!";
33.
}
34.

The first step is to create a form. You would have a few controls, one for the student number, and another for birthday. I suggest a text box to enter the student # and a set of combo boxes (one for the month/day/year) and then a submit button to handle the form processing. Before the form is submitted, check that the input is validated.

first a form to enter and submit the student no and birthday then a table or a div to display the results in the other page.

solved or??
