Answer 1

Query should be like this

$projects=mysql_query("select ProjectName from projects where LobID =
                     (select LobID from lob where LobName like '$selected')");

Change ".$selected."); to '$selected'

Answer 2

Try this... If you use like to search LobName means use %% .Its retrun possible match value kike single character

"select ProjectName from projects where LobID =
                ( select LobID from lob where LobName like '%$selected%');"

Answer 3

I think it should be the mix of Jocker' and Abdulla Nilam' answer:

$projects=mysql_query("select ProjectName from projects  
where LobID = ( select LobID from lob 
where LobName like '%".$selected."%');");

or make a join

$projects = mysql_query("SELECT ProjectName FROM projects
JOIN lob ON projects.LobID=lob.LobID
WHERE LobName LIKE '%" . $selected . "%');");

Answer 4

• what type of data contained in your $selected = $_GET['selected']; variable?
• how many lines of records your subquery returns?

if your subquery returns more records, you can either limit the number of results:

 <?php /** ... **/ $selected = $_GET['selected']; $projects = mysql_query("SELECT ProjectName FROM projects WHERE (LobID = ( SELECT LobID FROM lob WHERE LobName LIKE '%$selected%' LIMIT 1))"); ?> 

if not, you can do like this:

 <?php /** ... **/ $selected = $_GET['selected']; $projects = mysql_query("SELECT ProjectName FROM projects WHERE (LobID IN ( SELECT LobID FROM lob WHERE LobName LIKE '%$selected%'))"); ?>
