am i the problem ??

[psycho]

Hi all, it's me again :-(

why does this code not work ???

Code for the furst page.

Code: Select all

<input type=text name="input" size=10>

code for the second page

Code: Select all

$input_test = $input*;
$ query = "select bla from bla where bla = '$input_test';

because when somebody does not know the full name of something they can look for first parts of it.

Could somebody please be so kind and explaine me why this does not work.

Thanks for you're time
Have a nice day

Hello,

I think your problem is that you should place " arround you statement.

$input_test = "$input*";

Good luck

Code: Select all

<input type=text name="input" size=10>

code for the second page

Code: Select all

$input_test = '$_GET[input]';
$ query = "select * from `sometable` REGEXP = '$input_test';
