Jenn, Get rid of 'value=\"\"' in your code and give it a shot again...

This is a simple search engine based on one table. It is suppose to return the results of the search word. Instead it returns ALL records in the mysql table. If I type the letter x and there are no words in the table with an x I still get all records returned. Would someone be kind enough to show me what I have done wrong. if($search) { $query = "SELECT iname, quantity, user, price FROM {$config["prefix"]}_shop WHERE iname LIKE '%$searchword%' AND price > 0 ORDER BY price"; $ret = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($ret)) { $user = $row['user']; $iname = $row['iname']; $q = $row['quantity']; $price = $row['price']; if($searchword = $iname) { echo "<TABLE BORDER='0' WIDTH='95%' CELLPADDING='0' CELLSPACING='0'><TR>"; echo "<TD width=20%><a href='usershop.php?user=$user'>$user</a></TD>"; echo "<TD width=40%><font size=2>$iname</font></TD>"; echo "<TD width=20%><font size=2><CENTER>$q</CENTER></font></TD>"; echo "<TD width=30%><font size=2><CENTER>$price</CENTER></font></TD>"; echo "</TD></TR></TABLE>"; } } }else{ echo "<FORM METHOD=post ACTION='$PHP_SELF'>"; echo "Search Shops<BR><input type=text name=\"searchword\" value=\"\">"; echo "<BR><INPUT TYPE='submit' NAME='search' VALUE='Search'>"; } Thank you Jennifer -- The sleeper has awaken --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
