Hello
I am trying to get 4 dropdown lists to query mysql and then print the results in an html table.
There must be an error somewhere in the lines:
$query = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM accomodation WHERE
Area='" . $_POST["Area"] . "'
AND Location='" . $_POST["Location"] . "'
AND Sleeps='" . $_POST["Sleeps"] . "'
AND Price='" . $_POST["Price"] . "'");
echo $sql;
while ($row = @mysql_fetch_array($query))
as it will not print out the query.
If I make it just
SELECT * FROM accomodation
Then I get the whole database to print.
