Jennifer,

In the manual it's probably under the SELECT heading. (I've not checked, 
but that's a godd spot to start looking for the bits that can amke up the 
WHERE clause.)

Try removing the single quotes - you have one before >%shopsear< and 
another following iname, as > iname'" <

Sorry this is a bit vague, but if you need the single quotes arounf 
shopsearch you may have to build up the SQL statement bit by bit. Remember 
to echo $query so that you will know if it look right.

Cheers - Miles
