sorry for my "furry" message before. I search a DB in multiple search fields and my result code looks like this: <?PHP $db=test; $table=airline_a; if (! $link) die( "couldn't connect"); mysql_select_db($db) or die ("won't open test:".mysql_error() ); $db_res=mysql_list_dbs($link); $num=mysql_num_rows($db_res); for($x=0; $x<$num; $x++) $db_res=mysql_list_tables("$db",$link); $num=mysql_num_rows($db_res); for($x=0; $x<$num; $x++) $count = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM $table");//selects all rows $total = mysql_num_rows ($count);//counts the selected rows $query = "SELECT * FROM $table WHERE Field1 LIKE '%$icao%' $ton Field2 LIKE '%$name%' $ton Field3 LIKE '%$country%' ORDER BY $sort"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die("Error in query");//////////////////////////so this is the error I get///////////////// $total = mysql_num_rows ($result);//counts the selected rows print "<span class=text>your search returned ".$total." matches</span>"; print "<table border=1>\n"; print "<tr><td class=grey>Icao</td><td class=grey>Name (Location)</td><td class=grey>Country</td></tr>"; while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){ print "<tr>\n" ."<td class=white>" . $row['Field1'] . "</td>\n" ."<td class=white>" . $row['Field2'] . "</td>\n" ."<td class=white>" . $row['Field3'] . " </td>\n" ; } print "</tr></table>"; ?> The problem I have is that my setup on my localhost and my remote are identical (I think) and the files are the same. So where does it go wrong. All I get as error is 'Error in query' which doesn't tell me much. Please help me... Jacco -- http://seabird.jmtech.ca Attitude is Everything! But Remember, Attitudes are Contagious!
