php - Search MySQL database with LIKE statement -


i need return search results of users in database.

at moment, have managed use function in mysql query return results count, need echo usernames of results, not first result:

<?php     // mysql details     $host="localhost"; // host name      $username="classified"; // mysql username      $password="classified"; // mysql password      $db_name="jaycraftcommunity"; // database name      $tbl_name="members"; // table name       // connect server , select database.     mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect");      mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select db");      // form variable local     $search = $_post['username'];      // make query     //$sql = "select * $tbl_name (username='$search' or verified='$search')"; // sql query     $sql = "select username $tbl_name username '%$search%'"; // sql query     $result = mysql_query($sql); // query      // handle query data     $count = mysql_num_rows($result);     $row = mysql_fetch_row($result);     $array = mysql_fetch_array($result);      echo $count;      foreach( $row $arrays ): ?>     <tr>         <td><?php echo htmlspecialchars( $arrays ); ?></td>         <br />     </tr> <?php     endforeach; ?> 

the html form looks this:

<h2>search</h2>  <form method="post" action="search_engine.php">     search for:     <input type="text" name="username">     <input type="submit" value="search username"> </form> 

at moment, if go http://dev.jaycraft.co/player/dupe/search.php can see in action. search individual letters, show how many results there echo $count, echos first result.

thanks

every call of mysql_fetch_row($result) return row , advance cursor. need use while() loop on rows in result:

while($row = mysql_fetch_row($result)) {     echo $row[0]; }} 

for ease of use, it's better use mysql_fetch_assoc($result); return associative array:

while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {     echo $row['username']; }}
