bugzy Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Hello! I have this code <?php include_once('../database_connection.php'); $thiskeyword = addslashes($_REQUEST['keyword']); $sqlquery = "Select * from nba_info where player_id like '%$thiskeyword' OR fname like '%$thiskeyword' OR lname like '%$thiskeyword' OR team like '%$thiskeyword' OR email like '%$thiskeyword'"; $result = MYSQL_QUERY($sqlquery); $numberOfRows = MYSQL_NUM_ROWS($result); ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Search Result</title> </head> <body><center><br /><br /> <?php if($numberOfRows==0) { die('You keywords haven\'t much any data from the database'); } else if($numberOfRows>0) { echo $numberOfRows. " Results have been found!"; $i = 0; ?> <table> <tr> <td>player_id</td> <td>fname</td> <td>lname</td> <td>team</td> <td>email</td> </tr> <?php while($i<$numberOfRows) { $player_id = MYSQL_RESULT($result,$i,"player_id"); $fname = MYSQL_RESULT($result,$i,"fname"); $lname = MYSQL_RESULT($result,$i,"lname"); $team = MYSQL_RESULT($result,$i,"team"); $email = MYSQL_RESULT($result,$i,"email"); ?> <tr> <td><? echo $player_id; ?></td> <td><? echo $fname; ?></td> <td><? echo $lname; ?></td> <td><? echo $team; ?></td> <td><? echo $email; ?></td> </tr> <?php $i++; } ?> </table> <?php } ?> <ul> <li><a href="/php/database/ManipulatingDatabase/add_database.php">Add New Player</a></li> <li><a href="/php/database/ManipulatingDatabase/edit_form.php">Edit Player</li> <li><a href="/php/database/ManipulatingDatabase/delete_form.php">Delete Player</li> <li><a href="/php/database/ManipulatingDatabase/search_form.php">Search Player</li> <li><a href="/php/database/ManipulatingDatabase/manipulate_database.php">BACK TO MAIN</a></li> </ul> </center> </body> </html> I have no problem with the sql statement as code echo $numberOfRows. " Results have been found!"; is giving me a numbers of rows. The problem is the rows that have been found is not showing up in the html row. I wonder what the problem is.. anyone?

bugzy Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 What do you get when you do a 'view source' of the page in your browser? Hey I already solved it the problem is on <td><? echo $player_id; ?></td> <td><? echo $fname; ?></td> <td><? echo $lname; ?></td> <td><? echo $team; ?></td> <td><? echo $email; ?></td> so I make it <td><?php echo $player_id; ?></td> <td><?php echo $fname; ?></td> <td><?php echo $lname; ?></td> <td><?php echo $team; ?></td> <td><?php echo $email; ?></td> Just a question, I thought PHP is accepting this? <? //open ?> //close I wonder why the rows didn't show up by just using that....

PFMaBiSmAd Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Don't use php's lazy-way short open tags <?. They are not always enabled and you won't always be on a server where you will have the ability to enable them. All the short-cuts php put into the language waste more time then they ever saved. The full opening <?php tag will always work and should always be used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
