Search and display results from SQL database
Question
I have an MySQL database and I need to search for either the transaction number (and it shows me my name, email and item_name) or search for my email address AND name AND date of purchase which will then give me my transaction number and item_name - I don't want anything to come up unless email, name and date of purchase are all correct.
Fields in my database are:
iname
iemail
itransaction_id
item_name
Could someone please help.... this is what i currently have....
<html>
<head>
<title>Search</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor=#ffffff>
<h2>Search</h2>
<form name="search" method="post" action="findme.php">
Seach for: <input type="text" name="find" />
<input type="submit" name="search" value="Search" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
saved as findme.html
next:
<html>
<head><title>Searching for a student...</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor=#ffffff>
<?php
echo "<h2>Search Results:</h2><p>";
//If they did not enter a search term we give them an error
if ($find == "")
{
echo "<p>You forgot to enter a search term!!!";
exit;
}
// Otherwise we connect to our Database
mysql_connect("xxxx.com", "xxxx", "xxxxpw") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("xxxx") or die(mysql_error());
// We perform a bit of filtering
$find = strtoupper($find);
$find = strip_tags($find);
$find = trim ($find);
//Now we search for our search term, in the field the user specified
$iname = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ibn_table WHERE upper($field) LIKE'%$find%'");
//And we display the results
while($result = mysql_fetch_array( $iname ))
{
echo $result['firstname'];
echo " ";
echo $result['lastname'];
echo "<br>";
echo $result['idnumber'];
echo "<br>";
echo "<br>";
}
//This counts the number or results - and if there wasn't any it gives them a little message explaining that
$anymatches=mysql_num_rows($iname);
if ($anymatches == 0)
{
echo "Sorry, but we can not find an entry to match your query...<br><br>";
}
//And we remind them what they searched for
echo "<b>Searched For:</b> " .$find;
//}
?>
</body>
</html>
Which is saved as findme.php
This is the error im currently getting:
Search Results:
Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /hermes/bosweb25a/b409/ipg.bexgroupcouk/silverliningnetworks/Database/findme.php on line 31

SELECT * FROM ibn_table WHERE itransaction_id LIKE '%$find%'
请注意LIKE和'％$ find％'之间的空格

Just as a follow-up, I had this same error (php scripts displaying as text) and the way I fixed it is I checked the web address I was using for my webpages (this assumes I was running my WAMP from my local computer).
You should access your pages through the 'localhost/somewebpage.html' format rather than the 'file:///C:/wamp/www/somewebpage.html' format. If you go to your www folder from the WAMP server menu in the sytem tray and double click the html page you are trying to run, it will open up to the 'file:///C:/wamp/www/somewebpage.html' format.
As is obvious, the way around this is to open a browser and manually type "localhost/somewebpage.html" to view the webapge. Running it that way forces it to run through your Apache server which can process the php. Running it the other way forces the page to run entirely from the browser and your web browser is not a webserver so it handles the php script as plain text and displays it on your page.
