How do I search a database?

[IChaps]

Hello.

 

Could anyone familiar with mysqli advise me with regards reading and searching a database please?

 

After connecting to the database, and opening it.

 

So far, I've written the following:-

 

 

$sql = "SELECT Member_id, Fullname, Username, Email, Password, Location, Country, DOB, Gender, Photo, Tzone, WebsiteURL, MembershipType, AccountStatus, ShortURL, BusinessAddress, SignupDate, LastVisitDate, AccountClosedDate, AccountDeleteDate FROM registration";
$result = $conn->query($sql);

if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
// output data of each row
while ($row = $result->fetch_row()) {
if ( $row[3] == $user_email & $row[4] == $user_password) {

echo "Found Entry";

}

}

}

mysqli_close($conn);

 

I'm finding that the above, will only read the first record/entry in the database, and will not read/search the rest of the database.

 

I'd like to ask/request how do I go about searching the rest of the database? As I don't know how to proceed with it.

 

Thank You.

You need to use && instead of & when doing a boolean operation. & does a binary AND operation, not boolean and.
