Here's the skinny:
I'm starting development on a small search application & need some input
on a small roadblock I've run into..
What I need:
- Script needs to be able to search database for matching queries in a
specified column. (Ex: from a dropdown list the user selects "foo" and
types in "bar" for a query.. we need to return all results matching
"bar" from the "foo" column.) Pretty basic, with the exception of the
second part:
- Depending on the column-to-search they select from the drop-down
list, I need to change the structure of the query. This is needed
because SOME queries will need to be structured to select all records
from a column greater than / less than (insert number here) as opposed
to a standard select * where 'x' like '%y%' type query.
I would LIKE to keep the code relatively clean & don't want to flood it
with tons of "if" statements if at all possible.. which is why I'm
asking for your help. Any thoughts on a simple way to accomplish this?..
anyone tried something of this nature before?
Thank you in advance! Please let me know if you need additional detail..
