Your pagination uses swords to pass a page number, but you try to read it as the search word.

Your pagination uses swords to pass a page number, but you try to read it as the search word.

can you tell me what should i modify?? in the code

Hello Yamot47,

I agree with "pritaeas" you use search boxes "swords" value in your query so it work only first time and everytime when you click on pagniation next time your search boxes value is null so you query give whole database value.

So solution for that you need to make your searchbox value into session which you get every time when you click on pagination.

Here is some code you need to add:

For session please update first line:

session_start();
include "dbconfig.php";

and when you click on pagination you need to update:

if(isset($_POST['swords']))
    { 
        $search=$_POST['swords'];
        $_SESSION['sword'] = $_POST['swords'];

    }
    else
    {
        $search=$_SESSION['sword'];
    }

    $newurl = "search.php?swords=";

    $searchwords = addslashes(htmlspecialchars($_SESSION['sword'])); 
    {

Hope this will help you!

its working thank you HermanTPhp
it works
