Answer 1

You can just use a wildcard % on both sides of the search term:

SELECT productname
FROM productmaster
WHERE productname LIKE '%DOSA%'
ORDER BY productname

Answer 2

select * from productmaster where productname like '%DOSA%'

Answer 3

 $name = $_Post['name'];`

 $sql ="SELECT ID, DemoNeme1, DemoName2 FROM tableName WHERE  DemoNeme1 LIKE '%" . $name . "%' OR DemoName2  LIKE '%" . $name  ."%'";`
