<form action="/ap/demo_paging1.php" method="post">

<input type="text" value="Enter Site ID" name="a" class="textfield_effect" maxlength="30" onfocus="this.value=''">
<input type="submit" value="Search ID "  />
</form>

and I post value a to another page name demo_paging1.php

when I put Query WHERE SiteId REGEXP '$a' It does not show me the desire result

<?
require "config.php";           // All database details will be included here 

$page_name="demo_paging1.php"; //  If you use this code with a different page ( or file ) name then change this 

$a= $_POST["a"];
$start=$_GET['start'];
if(strlen($start) > 0 and !is_numeric($start)){
echo "Data Error";
exit;
}


$eu = ($start - 0); 
$limit = 10;                                 // No of records to be shown per page.
$this1 = $eu + $limit; 
$back = $eu - $limit;
