<?php

session_start();

	$action=$_POST["submit"];
		
	if ($action=="Back")
	{
		header("Location:empmenu.php");
	
	}
	else
	{

$search = $_POST["search"];
//in this section user must search colleague info by using fullname.
if (@mysql_connect("localhost","root",""))
	{
		if (@mysql_select_db("ems"))
		{			
		
		$sql = "SELECT * FROM employee WHERE fullname = '$search'";
			$result = mysql_query($sql) or die('Error, query failed '. mysql_error());
			while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result))
			{
					$photo = $row[photo];
					$empid = $row[empid];
					$fullname = $row[fullname];
					$address = $row[address];
					$dob = $row[dob];
					$gender= $row[gender];
					$contactno = $row[contactno];
					$email = $row[email];
					
		}
				}
				 }
				 }
			?>

I think you need to specify your connection in the mysql_error() expression on line 23.
On line 17 e.g. :

$dbc = mysql_connect("localhost","root","");

and than on line 23 :

$result = mysql_query($sql) or die('Error, query failed '. mysql_error($dbc));

Try this

<?php

session_start();

$action = $_POST["submit"];

if ($action == "Back") {
    header("Location:empmenu.php");

} else {

    $server = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "");
    $selectDB = mysql_select_db("ems");
    $search = $_POST["search"];
    //in this section user must search colleague info by using fullname.
    if ($server) {
        if ($selectDB) {

            $sql = "SELECT * FROM employee WHERE fullname = '$search'";
            $result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
            if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {
                while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
                    $photo = $row[photo];
                    $empid = $row[empid];
                    $fullname = $row[fullname];
                    $address = $row[address];
                    $dob = $row[dob];
                    $gender = $row[gender];
                    $contactno = $row[contactno];
                    $email = $row[email];

                }
            } else
                echo "No result found for <b>" . $search . "</b>";
        }
    }
}
?>

Hello again
Thanks for the reply Geertc and lili.edryana.

lili.edryana.: I have try to run the Php with yours, it does show the error "No result found for" but the information from the database does not appear in the table.
It is I miss something on opening and closing curly brace.
Thank In Advance

[lili.edryana]

take a look at this line..

<tr><td bgcolor="#FFCC00">Emp ID : </td><td><?php echo $row['empid'];?></td></tr>

replace $row; with $empid

because you assign the array filed to the variable.
