Hello
I am trying to create a one-field search form with fields that match fields in a database, carry out a search for records which match the word put in the search button, and show the results in a table on the same page.
I have got myself a bit mixed up. Something does show, but it just repeats for all the records I have. I actually want it to list the fields in the database, but dont'know how to write the sql query property.
My table is called address_details
Has the following fields: address_owner, block_no, unit_no, road_name, house_name, local_area, postcode, price, property_status.
Any help would be much appreciated.
<?php require_once('./Connections/iwalletc_localhost.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")
{
if (PHP_VERSION < 6) {
$theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;
}
$theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);
switch ($theType) {
case "text":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "long":
case "int":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";

$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? doubleval($theValue) : "NULL";
break;
case "date":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "defined":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
break;
}
return $theValue;
}
