Hello again, I have another question; when I enter the % manually, then it works, why is that? Like, when I enter solar%panel it finds solar panel, but when i enter solarpanel it dont? why is a manually "wildcard" solar%panel readable but a function inputing solar%panel not readable? :s function moreWords($val){$val = str_replace(" ","%", $val);echo $val;}morewords("solar panel"); will output solar%panel, and should return the same value when sent as a string through the return $val i use? but it don't.. I really find it tempting to ask users to enter a % when searching with multiplie words.. though people might find that as an unpleasant user experience?

Yes i am, very nice! Thanks

Nice. then I got that right Thanks

Ok, then I'll do that! Thank you very much for your quick response I only know of the escape string, and I've heard some people use strip and add slashes, but don't know if I need to do that with esacpe string? do you have any tips?
-
Okey! Thanks Would the easiest way to do that be putting the words in an array and do a for each? Kris

Hello everyone, I did try to search alot for an answer on this one, but I could not find it anywhere. I'm trying to have a simple search feature for my site, but I keep getting a blank page when doing a search containing multiplie words "like this" Tried to work it out with a str_replace but did not do the trick, have done this before, and it does work when just outputing the val as an echo instead of a query, so I'm blank now and appreciate any help! //function for replacing empty space with % function moreWords($val){$val = str_replace(" ","%", $val);return $val;} //Query$getCategoriesResults = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `database`.`forumCategories` WHERE description LIKE '%".moreWords($_GET['search'])."%'");
