    Why not just put wordpress on your site and it comes with search automatically - or get a shopping cart script or something.

    Why don't you just write it from scratch? It's just a matter of building up the where claused based on the criteria given in the form. A "one size fits all" script will be more complicated and harder for you to maintain.

    Not every user should have access to phpMyAdmin - and sometimes they just want to search to get info, not to edit the database.

    Hi, you are right sarahk, phpmyadmin is not good for user all the time, in fact i h ave access to phpmyadmin but i am lacking on how to start the developments, i can't through all the php just for this, if u have only tutorial that does this or a script that i can modify to complete this task that would be great! still awaiting your help for the simplest way to achieve this :)

    hi and thanks again for your help dear sarahk

    i've watched some also on youtube, actually i prefer to get a smiple script and edit rather than coding from scratch, it is really easy one and i am sure someone else has done
