Here it is the code how to make search in MySQL, but the links to other 10 results doesn't work! Please help me <?php mysql_connect("localhost", "worldweb", "pass") or die(mysql_error()) ; mysql_select_db("worldweb") or die(mysql_error()) ; // Get the search variable from URL $var = @$_GET['q'] ; $trimmed = trim($var); //trim whitespace from the stored variable // rows to return $limit=10; // check for an empty string and display a message. if ($trimmed == "") { echo "<p><b>Please enter a search ...</b></p>"; exit; } // check for a search parameter if (!isset($var)) { echo "<p>We dont seem to have a search parameter!</p>"; exit; } //specify database ** EDIT REQUIRED HERE ** mysql_select_db("worldweb") or die("Unable to select database"); //select which database we're using // Build SQL Query $query = "select * from users where website_information like \"%$trimmed%\" order by input_date"; // EDIT HERE and specify your table and field names for the SQL query $numresults=mysql_query($query); $numrows=mysql_num_rows($numresults); // If we have no results, offer a google search as an alternative if ($numrows == 0) { echo ""; } // next determine if s has been passed to script, if not use 0 if (empty($s)) { $s=0; } // get results $query .= " limit $s,$limit"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die("Couldn't execute query"); // display what the person searched for echo "<b>Search results: </b> "" . $var . "" <img src=\"img/other_img/down.gif\" width=\"7\" height=\"5\">"; // begin to show results set $count = 1 + $s ; // now you can display the results returned while ($row= mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $title = $row["website_name"]." - ".$row["short_description"]."<br> ".$row["website_information"]."<br> <a target='_blank' href=redirect.php?id=".$row['id']."><b>".$row["url"]."</b></a> <font size=\"1\" color=\"#808080\">â— Country: ".$row['country']."</font><hr>"; echo "$count. $title" ; $count++ ; } $currPage = (($s/$limit) + 1); //break before paging echo "<br />"; // next we need to do the links to other results if ($s>=1) { // bypass PREV link if s is 0 $prevs=($s-$limit); print " <a href=\"$PHP_SELF?s=$prevs&q=$var\"><< Prev 10</a>  "; } // calculate number of pages needing links $pages=intval($numrows/$limit); // $pages now contains int of pages needed unless there is a remainder from division if ($numrows%$limit) { // has remainder so add one page $pages++; } // check to see if last page if (!((($s+$limit)/$limit)==$pages) && $pages!=1) { // not last page so give NEXT link $news=$s+$limit; echo " <a href=\"$PHP_SELF?s=$news&q=$var\">Next 10 >></a>"; } $a = $s + ($limit) ; if ($a > $numrows) { $a = $numrows ; } $b = $s + 1 ; echo "<p>Showing results $b to $a of $numrows</p>"; ?> PHP:
You forgot a $s = $_GET['s']; PHP: from the first lines, so $s is always zero. You should use mysql_real_escape_string to prevent SQL injections. And one single query would be enough, I don't see a reason to run the (almost) same MySQL query 2 times.
