Hello,

The code below doesn't work properly but kind of illustrates what I'm
trying to do here.  In this particular query, I'm trying to limit
access to what might be viewed in the table for 'hardware', so even
though there might be 5 total hardware types listed in the table, the
user would only be able to query 'nuts' OR 'bolts' separately or
'Both'.  In this query they wouldn't have access to 'All' where if
they did, might see 'screws', 'washers', or 'anchors' too.  Can anyone
help?
thanks,
john

$query = 
   "SELECT *
    FROM $table ";
    if($source != "All") $query .= "and source = '".$source."'";
    if($hardware != "Both") $query .= "and hardware = '".$hardware."'";
    if($plant != "All") $query .= "and plant = '".$plant."'";
    if($area != "All") $query .= "and area = '".$area."'";
        
$result = mysql_query($query);
