Hello,

First let me start of by saying that I am new to javascript and ajax, but I thing I need them to accomplish what I am trying to do and here it is.

I have there search forms, 1 search owner, 2 search contractor, 3 search properity. Then I have a form on the same page that each of these searches are to populate from the form and insert the data into MySQL. I have the searches doing the job except when I move from one search to the other the first search is cleared from the form. The search shows the details of and the primary id from the searches is to be passed on in the form that it is populating to the database. I have been researching and it seems that what I am looking for is to have a autolookup for the searches with out a page refreash, but that is out of my capabilities. I have not found any samples of what I am trying to do. I know that there is someone that know how to do this and might be able to point me in the right direction to understand it.

this is the page:

http://www.1stsourcesolution.com/Inspectit/addPermit2.php

The code is as follow for the page:

<?php require_once('../Connections/MySql_connection.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";

      break;

    case "double":

      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? doubleval($theValue) : "NULL";

      break;

    case "date":

      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";

      break;

    case "defined":

      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;

      break;

  }

  return $theValue;

}

}

I have the searches doing the job except when I move from one search to the other the first search is cleared from the form.

i assume you are looking to search where info(some detail) = search 1 and search 2
that being the case you need to pass the value of both search fields to your function
by having them in the same form (this can give you bad results if someone started typing in another field)
keeping them in separate forms with hidden values for the other fields containing the results of previous searches

<form>
<input name="search"/>
<input type="hidden" name="other search" value="previous value"/>
</form>

old values stay in place to you replace them or clear them with some sort of clear function
