Search Box Urgent

[hitman123]

I have created a search box which potentially works. But I wish to insert the results in to the text box rather than having them on the page. I've been working on this for literally 3 days but getting no where, please help.

I have a text box and a search button next to it. so When I put in a search and click search, the results should appear in the ref text box. I hope you understand what I mean. Please Help. Here is the code:

<form action="test_search.php" method="get">
<input type="text" name="query" id="query" size="40" value="" action="Search.php" columns="2" autocomplete="off" delay="1500"> 
<input type="submit" value="Search">
<input type="hidden" name="search" value="1">
</form>
<center></center>
</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<?
$myServer = '*****';
$myUser = '****';
$myPass = '*****'; 
$myDB = '*******';
$SpecRef = $_GET['query'];
print ("$SpecRef");



//connection to the database
$dbhandle = mssql_connect($myServer, $myUser, $myPass)
or die("Couldn't connect to SQL Server on $myServer");



//select a database to work with 
$selected = mssql_select_db($myDB, $dbhandle)
or die("Couldn't open database $myDB");
//error message (not found message)begins 
$XX = "No Matches Found"; 
//query details table begins
$query = ("SELECT * FROM ******** WHERE Spec_Ref LIKE'$SpecRef%' "); 
// $query = ("SELECT * FROM *******");

print(' is what you searched for:');


//execute the SQL query and return records
$result = mssql_query($query);

$numRows = mssql_num_rows($result);
echo "<h1>" . $numRows . " Record" . ($numRows == 1 ? "" : "s") . " Found </h1>";

//display the results
echo '<textarea>'; 
while($row = mssql_fetch_array($result)) 
{
echo $row["Spec_Ref"] . "\n"; }
echo '</textarea>'; 
//close the connection 
mssql_close($dbhandle); 
//display the results
while($row = mssql_fetch_array($result))
{
echo "<li>" . $row["Spec_Ref"] . "</li>"; 
}
//close the connection
mssql_close($dbhandle);

//textareaContent = "";

//while ($row = @mysql_fetch_array($query))
//{
//$var1=$row["Player"];
//$var2=$row["Avg"];
//$var3=$row["HR"];
//$var4=$row["RBI"];

$textareaContent .= "Spec Ref: $var1 Avg: $var2 HR: $var3 RBI $var4 <br/>";
//}

//if (!isset($var1) || $var1=="") {
//echo $XX;
//}
