Ciao. Ramil, Janet, Dan, and Matther thank you for your advice. But problem still unsolved. Sorry for asking many questions. My PHP-MySQL library database isnt working properly (PHP and HTML scripts are the bottom of this message). The problem seems to be "GO" (mySQL name)/"go" (PHP name), because when I typed 100 in GO field in the HTML query page, the following appeared in the result page: Bad query: You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'and Tit like and Aut like and Auty like ' at line 4 In contrast, when I typed 2000 in "dt" field ("ym" in MySQL), this appeared: Bad query: You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'and ym like 2000 and Tit like and Aut like and Auty like ' at line 3 The thing is Bad query doesnt say "GO like 100"! As long as I see MySQL seems working correctly. I can do like "select * from gen_table where id < 10" Is this something related to the change of PHP 3 to 4? I was given a database made by PHP3.0&MySQL3.23, and I upgraded it to PHP 4.3. When I just used register_globals=ON, didnt use $_GET stuff, the database worked perfectly, but when I tried register_globals=OFF and use $_GET stuff, problem happens. Any idea somebody, please?? ----------------------------------------- The script Im having a problem is here: <html> <body> <TITLE>gen_search.php</TITLE> <table border="1" align="center" BGCOLOR="#F2FEE0"> <tr> <td align="right">ID</td> <td align="center">Vol</td> <td align="center">Date</td> <td align="center">Title</td> <td align="center">Author</td> <td align="center">PageStart</td> <td align="center">PageEnd</td> <td align="center">Image</td> </tr> <? mysql_connect(localhost,root,love); mysql_select_db(gendai); if (empty($_GET["go"]) & empty($_GET["dt"]) & empty($_GET["ti"]) & empty($_GET["au"]) & empty($_GET["ay"])) { echo 'Type something'; } elseif ($_GET["go"] == "%" | $_GET["dt"] == "%" | $_GET["ti"] == "%" | $_GET["au"] == "%" | $_GET["ay"] == "%") { echo 'Not valid'; } else { foreach ($_GET as $value) { if (empty($value)) $value = "%"; } $result = mysql_query("select * from gen_table where GO like ".$_GET["go"]." and ym like ".$_GET["dt"]." and Tit like ".$_GET["ti"]." and Aut like ".$_GET["au"]." and Auty like ".$_GET["ay"]."") or die("Bad query: ".mysql_error()); $rows = mysql_num_rows($result); echo $rows,"Records available<p>"; while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ ?> <tr> <td align ="right"><A HREF = "gen_detail.php ?id=<? echo $row["ID"]; ?>"><? echo $row["ID"]; ?></A></td> <td align ="right"><A HREF = "gen_search2.php ?go=<? echo $row["GO"]; ?>"><? echo $row["GO"]; ?></A></td> <td><? echo $row["ym"]; ?></td> <td width="400"><? echo $row["Tit"]; ?></td> <td width="200"><? echo $row["Aut"]; ?></td> <td><? echo $row["sta"]; ?></td> <td><? echo $row["end"]; ?></td> <td> <?php if($row["GO"] <= 500) { ?> <A HREF="/momatlib/gendai/pdf/<? echo $row["GO"]; ?>.pdf">pdf</A> <?php } ?> </td> </tr> <? } } ?> </table> </body> </html> ----------------------------------------------------------- And HTML here: <html> <body> <TITLE>gen_menu.html</TITLE> <BODY TEXT="#000000" LINK="#0000FF" VLINK="#008040" ALINK="#FF00FF"> <form action="gen_search2.php" method="get"> <table border="1" align="center" BGCOLOR="#F2FEE0"> <tr><td> Search</td><td align="center">Type</td><td align="center">tips</td></tr> <tr><td align="center">Volume</td><td><input type="text" name="go" size= "10" maxlength= "10"></td><td></td></tr><p> <tr><td align="center">Date</td><td><input type="text" name="dt" size= "10" maxlength= "10"></td><td></td></tr><p> <tr><td align="center">Title</td><td><input type="text" name="ti" size="60" maxlength="60"></td><td></td></tr><p> <tr><td align="center">Author</td><td><input type="text" name="au" size="60" maxlength="60"></td><td></td></tr><p> <tr><td align="center">Yomi</td><td><input type="text" name="ay" size="60" maxlength="60"></td><td></td></tr><p> <tr><td></td><td align="center"><a href="gen50.php">LINK</a></td><p> </table><p> <p align="center"> <input type="submit" value="Search"> <input type="reset" value="Clear" ></P> </form> </body> </html> -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
