I STFW and RTFM and I still can't figure out why this returns a 1064 parse error:
SELECT * FROM 'my_table' WHERE ('field_1' LIKE '%$keyword%' OR 'field_2' LIKE '%$keyword%' OR 'field_3' LIKE '%$keyword%') AND 'status' = 'active';
Anyone? TIA!

What does mysql_error() tell you?


You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ''my_table' WHERE ('field_1' LIKE '%%' OR 'field2'


I think this has been mentioned already, but your field names shouldn't have quotes around them. You should be using back ticks.
