I'm creating search for my website.How should i give links of respective pages to the results that i m getting.

Pls Help.

Th answer to the question you ask depends on the way your website is structured.

Do you have several pages or are the pages being dynamically created from a DB?
Is your search algorithm returning the page_id's or the page names?

If you can post the code as to where you have a problem we might be able to help.

I have several pages whose content is displayed dynamically created from a DB.
search algorithm returns the page names not pageid's.
How should i search for all tables in DB and give the respective page link to those results
Pls Help.

Do you have a primary key for the DB from which you pull the pages. How would you access your pages in a browser? You should have something like http://www.example.com/page.php?page_name=page1 If that's the case then it would be easy to link to the pages. All you have to do would be to use <a href="http://www.example.com/page.php?page_name=<? echo $page['page_name'] ?>">Page1</a> You will of course have to change the variables depending on your code. The echo will give the reference of the page_name to the link.

If you still have a problem, post the code where you are pulling the search results, and I'll see how you can link your pages.
