Re: [PHP-DB] SELECT query with multiple "WHERE" Clause
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM gig WHERE gigName='$gig_name' OR gig_fdate='$sdate'"); You only use the WHERE clause once then use parenthesis, AND and OR to create the logical conditions. If you have access to the mysql server, maybe through phpMyAdmin or something, I'd highly recommend forming your SQL statements using that, then creating your PHP once you've perfected your SQL. SQL statements can be very powerful and sometimes dangerous and it's much easier to debug the SQL when you work with it by itself and not have to worry about any PHP issues too. Assuming your MySQL server is on another server, if you have a Windows machine you can use a program like WinSQL Lite or Navicat to connection to the MySQL server (if it allows remote connections). phpMyAdmin is probably the easiest option though. -TG - Original Message - From: Nasreen Laghari <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: php-db@lists.php.net Date: Wed, 27 Feb 2008 15:44:23 -0800 (PST) Subject: [PHP-DB] SELECT query with multiple "WHERE" Clause > Hi All, > > Thank you for increasing my knowledge about PHP/MYSQL. > > I am creating a SEARCH, by only using one table.

$query = mysql_query("SELECT * from gig WHERE gigName='$gig_name' OR WHERE gig_fdate='$sdate'"); This one.
