Hi. can someone help me with my problem regarding search function, i have hard time knowing where to insert my
if(isset($_POST['search'])).................and so on codes within my phpfile.
here is my code, (pagination working)
<?php
$sql = "SELECT COUNT(user_id) FROM view_onse_officers";
$query = mysqli_query($db_conx, $sql);
$row = mysqli_fetch_row($query);
$rows = $row[0];
$page_rows =10;
$last = ceil($rows/$page_rows);
if($last < 1){
$last = 1;
}
$pagenum = 1;
if(isset($_GET['pn'])){
$pagenum = preg_replace('#[^0-9]#', '', $_GET['pn']);
}
if ($pagenum < 1) {
$pagenum = 1;
} else if ($pagenum > $last) {
$pagenum = $last;
}
$limit = 'LIMIT ' .($pagenum - 1) * $page_rows .',' .$page_rows;
$sql = "SELECT user_id, studentno, username, CONCAT(last_name, ', ', first_name) AS name, posname, course, gender FROM view_onse_officers $limit";
$query = mysqli_query($db_conx, $sql);
$textline2 = "Page <b>$pagenum</b> of <b>$last</b>";
$paginationCtrls = '';
if($last != 1){
if ($pagenum > 1) {
$previous = $pagenum - 1;
$paginationCtrls .= '<a href="'.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?pn='.$previous.'">Previous</a> ';
for($i = $pagenum-4; $i < $pagenum; $i++){
if($i > 0){
$paginationCtrls .= '<a href="'.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?pn='.$i.'">'.$i.'</a> ';
}
}
}
$paginationCtrls .= ''.$pagenum.' ';
for($i = $pagenum+1; $i <= $last; $i++){
$paginationCtrls .= '<a href="'.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?pn='.$i.'">'.$i.'</a> ';
if($i >= $pagenum+4){
break;
}
}
if ($pagenum != $last) {
$next = $pagenum + 1;
$paginationCtrls .= ' <a href="'.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?pn='.$next.'">Next</a> ';
}
}
$list = '';
