Perhaps you should make a bit of effort on this yourself? So far all I have seen is "gimme code" posts and no code of your own.

save this code with name search.htm
code is :

<h2>Search</h2> <form name="search" method="post" action="search.php"> Seach for: <input type="text" name="find" /> in <Select NAME="search" size="1"> <Option VALUE="rn" selected>Registration
    No.</option> <Option VALUE="name">Name</option> <Option VALUE="marks">Marks</option> </Select> <input type="hidden" name="searching" value="yes" /> <input type="submit" name="b1" value="Search" /> </form>

AND make a SECOND FILE search.php

and put this code on this file :

<?php

$search=$_POST['search'];


echo "$search";

$con=mysql_connect("servername", "username", "password");//'localhost','root',''

if (!$con)  {  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());  } 

 mysql_select_db("data", $con);


switch ($search)

{

case "rn":

$string = ("select * from student where Reg= '$search');

 $query = mysql_query($string)or die (mysql_error());

 $query = mysql_query($string) or die (mysql_error());

$result = mysql_fetch_array($query);

if($result==true){

do

 {	echo "<table><tr>";

	echo "<td>".$result['Reg']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$result['Name']."</td>";

echo "<td>".$result['Marks']."</td>";

	echo "</tr></table>"; 

}while($result = mysql_fetch_array($query));}


break;


case "name":

$string = ("select * from student where name= '$search');

 $query = mysql_query($string)or die (mysql_error());

 $query = mysql_query($string) or die (mysql_error());

$result = mysql_fetch_array($query);

if($result==true){

do

 {	echo "<table><tr>";

	echo "<td>".$result['Reg']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$result['Name']."</td>";

echo "<td>".$result['Marks']."</td>";

	echo "</tr></table>"; 

}while($result = mysql_fetch_array($query));}


break;

case "marks":
$string = ("select * from student where marks= '$search');

 $query = mysql_query($string)or die (mysql_error());

 $query = mysql_query($string) or die (mysql_error());

$result = mysql_fetch_array($query);

if($result==true){

do

 {	echo "<table><tr>";

	echo "<td>".$result['Reg']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$result['Name']."</td>";

echo "<td>".$result['Marks']."</td>";

	echo "</tr></table>"; 

}while($result = mysql_fetch_array($query));}


break;
}
