Question

I have a search box in my PHP file. but its searches from only one table name "countries" but I have another table "continent" I want my search box to get results from both tables "countries" & "continent". currently, it looks like this[my search box][1]

 <?php /* Attempt MySQL server connection. Assuming you are running MySQL server with default setting (user 'root' with no password) */ $link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "root", "", "test"); // Check connection if($link === false){ die("ERROR: Could not connect. ". mysqli_connect_error()); } if(isset($_REQUEST["term"])){ // Prepare a select statement $sql = "SELECT * FROM countries WHERE name LIKE?"; if($stmt = mysqli_prepare($link, $sql)){ // Bind variables to the prepared statement as parameters mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, "s", $param_term); // Set parameters $param_term = $_REQUEST["term"]. '%'; // Attempt to execute the prepared statement if(mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt)){ $result = mysqli_stmt_get_result($stmt); // Check number of rows in the result set if(mysqli_num_rows($result) > 0){ // Fetch result rows as an associative array while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result, MYSQLI_ASSOC)){ echo '<img src="'.$row['image'].' "width="85px" height="85px" >'; echo '<p><a href="deteles.php?ID='. $row['id'].'" target="_blank">'. $row['name']. '</a></p>'; } } else{ echo "<p>No matches found</p>"; } } else{ echo "ERROR: Could not able to execute $sql. ". mysqli_error($link); } } // Close statement mysqli_stmt_close($stmt); } // close connection mysqli_close($link); ?>

and this is my tables[table1][2] [table3][3]

These are my two PHP files.

Answer 1

You can use UNION. The only condition is column count should match in both the queries. Here is an example

SELECT id, name, 'country' FROM countries WHERE name LIKE '%America%' 
UNION
SELECT id, name, 'continent' FROM continents WHERE name LIKE '%America%';
