Actually, cst_SiteID is tied to assets owned by the customer in another
table. What I need to do is get the cst_SiteID and use it to get a list of
assets from the other table. I have created a successful search page for an
individual site id search, but now want to do a search by name, where
multiple sites are displayed. Here is my current query:
mysql_select_db(mig) or die("Problem selecting database");
$query = "SELECT * FROM customers WHERE cst_Name LIKE '$_SESSION[Name]%'";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die ("Query failed");
//let's get the number of rows in our result so we can use it in a for loop
Search by Site ID
SiteID: 7820 <-- Search for SiteID
7820
+ Center Technologies, Inc. 7820 <-- Results from
Search listing Name
and Site ID
+ 37670 7820-www-db0 63.240.145.18 7820 <-- Assests Associated with
SiteID 7820
+

Well, if cst_SiteID is autoincrement, try:
update customers set cst_SiteID=0 where cst_Name LIKE 'st%';
