Pagination And Dropdown Menu Used In Searching Mysql
I am working on building a database made for searching. I have a text search and a dropdown box used for searching different table collumns (lets people search for certan criteria). I have that working correctly.

I also only want to show 25 results per page. I have that working correctly. My problem is that when I combine the two it breaks the code. The pagination works fine without the dropdown and vice versa. I think it is due to the variable that is being used to choose the collumn in the sql query. Code:

Duplicates In A Dropdown Menu Populated From My Database

[PEAR:QuickForm] Dynamically Change A Dropdown Menu According To Another Menu?
I've been using QuickForm for a few months now and I am now given a
new challenge:

I've got a search form with a dozen of dropdown menus, the first
dropdown menu being "Brand". If you select either Brand A, B, C, D...
Z, the second dropdown menu "Model" must be dynamically changed to
model AA, AB, AC, AD..., according to the models manufactured by the
brand selected in the first box.

I've seen that done on quite a few sites, but never found if QuickForm
had a quick & clean way of doing that.

Mysql / Dropdown Menu
what i am trying to do is to make a system with a few input pages and edit and read pages..

so right now i got the input/edit/read pages working. (yay) But now I want to have on 1 input page a dropdown menu that reads its information from the database. and that if i go to the page i can select a value out of the db and submit that inside my form and that it reminds the value if i view or edit the page.

So what i got now is a little system that is able to add/remove/edit a value inside a field called "drop01"

Well now i got a other input page called "input01.php" inside this script i want to have the dropdown menu that reads its values from the "drop01" field. PHP Code:

2 Questions. Dropdown Menu And # Of Rows.
1. I have a table named pics and a column named name, just to let you know for use. I want to take the data from each row in the name column and insert it into a dropdown menu.

I know how I could do it, but I would have to go:

Code:
<SELECT NAME="name" SIZE="1">
<OPTION SELECTED><?php $name[10 ?>
<OPTION><?php $name[1] ?>
<OPTION><?php $name[2] ?>
<OPTION><?php $name[3] ?>
<OPTION><?php $name[4] ?>
<OPTION><?php $name[5] ?>
<OPTION><?php $name[6] ?>
</SELECT>
but then I could make too many or too less. I want it to automatically adjust to the number of rows.

2.What is the code needed to find out how many rows are in a table?

Unwanted URLs In URL Dropdown Menu
I'm working on a PHP script and it has a user login, and the variables (username, password, id number) are passed via the URL bar. Is it possible to somehow not allow the visited page show up in the dropdown list of URLs in the browser? The problem is that people can view the list and easily see people's usernames and passwords. Example:

http://www.somesite.com?username=john&password=12345 What I only want is:
http://www.somesite.com/

I know that Hotmail.com doesn't show all of the pages that have been visited, all it shows in the list is hotmail.com, so I think it is possible to do this, but I don't know how.

Dropdown Menu <selected Name="...
I have a dropdown menu like this one:

<select name="country" tabindex="6" id="select_country">
<option value="">- Country List -</option>
<?php 
$query = "SELECT * FROM country ORDER BY country ASC";

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result)) {

<option value="<?php echo $country ?>"><?php echo $country ?></option>

After I have selected one country and I hit the submit button it go back to the default value in the box, what I want is to show the selected value in box until I selected another value.

If the default value is Australia when I start this page, I then select USA and hit the submit button it reset to the default value "Australia", but I want it to show USA as long I not select anything else. I have tried to use session in selected="<?php echo $_SESSION['country']; ?>" but it didnt work.

Autopopulate Dropdown List From Database
An events-registration page with a form containing a dropdown list for upcoming events, the events will be pulled from a table which is updated by...?

what i've gathered so far is that this can be done with PHP. I am a little unclear on the concept of how this is done. How does the updated information get input into the table?

1) can this be done (updating database) through a web interface by the client, or is it something i would have to do locally and then upload. If done by the client, can he delete/edit existing information--assuming he is not familiar with code.

2) what other things aside from html(good), sql(so-so), and php(newb) will i have to know?

i've seen a lot of good tutorials here and will have access to the necessary software. I just want to know if there is anything else i should know before i dive in head first without testing the PHP water, which i assume is frigid.

I am not entirely sure that this is the right place to post this, I am asking a question about MySQL but I am asking how to search it with PHP, so I guess this is correct I want to search my MySQL database for terms a user enters. Lets say this was a music site and the user wanted to search for something like "puddle of mudd", how can I get the code to return the results for every row in my Table where the cell 'name' inlcudes 'puddle' or 'mud'. You see what I am getting at, a search that is NOT exact. I can do it with the text box and a submit button and bring up a page that uses something like : SELECT from musicians WHERE name=$search But that will only bring up that exact band, with no account for spelling mistakes or if the user know like one word in the name of the artist and they type it in it brings up a list of results.

Searching A Database
I have a list of widgets/prices in a MySql database. The widgets are available in any size [height x width] within a given limit [say 1m square]. There are a range of "standard" sizes and corresponding prices. Non standard prices can be calculated by taking the next standard size above and adding 20%. To give you some idea, there are potentially 1.4 million possible size variations, the prices of which can all be calculated from 136 "standard" sizes/prices. So, standard sizes/prices may look like this:

715 x 313 = $16
715 x 395 = $17.23
895 x 295 = $21.60
895 x 395 = $23.61.

works nicely for searching a field which i know. But i want $search_where to also have the option of 'Anywhere' so the db looks in all fields of the row to try and find what is specified. how would i do that?

Searching My Database For Multiple Fields
I have a number of different tables containing a number of different fields and i want to give people on my site an advanced search. The easiest way to explain this is for you to think of it as an estate agent's website. People visit the site and search for houses based on a number of different criteria, for example they would have a number of diffent boxes they could narrow a search down such as 'number of rooms', 'type of property', 'price' etc... Now this is similar to my site, I want people to b able to choose to narrow there search down but not be forced to enter information into all boxes.

So i want a search where a user would be able to select the number of rooms they want a property to have but if they choose not to enter that information then the intial value of '0' (or null) would be submitted to the search query. A user should be able to enter number of rooms AND/OR property type AND/OR price. IF they dont enter that information then a value of '0' (or null) would be submitted  for each of the options to the query however if they do select a value then this would form the query.

This is where im struggling. After racking my small brains and trying to think logically about how i would do this, my logic tells me (and correct me if im wrong) that if i choose too insert each variable 1 at a time into a search query such as

$search_result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE rooms='$rooms' AND type='$type' AND price='$price'",$database);

...then if a user hadnt entered how many rooms but had entered 'flat' as the property type they wanted then the sql would be searching the 'rooms' field for 0 (which it obviously WONT find) AND 'type' for 'flat' and will return no result even if a 'flat' did exist in the database

What I have considered is building up the query as i go, so for example. Code:
