Hi Guys,
I have written a search page in php. When i run it it shows an error as
Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\Search_ex\sea.php on line 28
My script is
PHP Code:
<?
//This is only displayed if they have submitted the form
if ($searching =="yes")
{
echo "<h2>Results</h2><p>";
//If they did not enter a search term we give them an error
if ($find == "")
{
echo "<p>You forgot to enter a search term";
exit;
}
// Otherwise we connect to our Database
$con=mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "abc456") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("project",$con) or die(mysql_error());
// We preform a bit of filtering
$find = strtoupper($find);
$find = strip_tags($find);
$find = trim ($find);
//Now we search for our search term, in the field the user specified
$data="SELECT FirstName, LastName, Email FROM Contacts WHERE FirstName LIKE '%" . $field . "%' OR LastName LIKE '%" . $field ."%'";
//$data = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE upper($field) LIKE'%$find%'");
//And we display the results
while($result=mysql_fetch_array($data))
echo $result['FirstName'];
echo " ";
echo $result['LastName'];
echo "<br>";
echo $result['Email'];
echo "<br>";
echo "<br>";
//This counts the number or results - and if there wasn't any it gives them a little message explaining that
$anymatches=mysql_num_rows($data);
if ($anymatches == 0)
{
echo "Sorry, but we can not find an entry to match your query<br><br>";
}
//And we remind them what they searched for
echo "<b>Searched For:</b> " .$find;
}
?>
Can anyone help me on this.
