search problems after upgrade to mysql_i

HI Ray

Just testing an upgraded search page from mysql to mysql_i and I just can't get it to work! I think I've tried all the variable of AND or OR, column types etc - but always get nothing.

I deleted the old WA Search and ran the new mysql_i one, but no joy.

Original and new (1-pages_Results4.php) attached.

Cheers
Chris

It looks like your mySQLi version has a different trigger. You have:

if (isset($_POST["Search"]) || isset($_POST["Search_x"])) {

it should be the same as the working page:

if (isset($_GET["Search"]) || isset($_GET["Search_x"])) {

Thanks Ray - tried that and now get

There is an error in your SQL syntax.

after doing the search. When running the search behaviour, it puts POST in by default.

Latest version attached.

Thanks again,

Chris

Update your rsobj.php file and find the line near the top that has debug = false; and change it to debug=true. That should give you more information about what the SQL error is, and may be enough to help you figure out what needs to be changed. Otherwise post the full error back here and I'll provide my insight.

Thanks Ray

I get:

SELECT `pages`.`PgID`, `pages`.`PgTypeID`,`pages`.`PgBriefDetails`,`pages`.`PgMainPic`, `pages`.`PgMainPicAltText`, pages.StartDate, pages.EndDate, DATE_FORMAT (pages.StartDate ,'%a %D %b %Y') AS `StartDateA`, DATE_FORMAT (pages.EndDate ,'%a %D %b %Y') AS `EndDateA`, `pages`.`Active`, `pages`.`PgSticky`, `pages`.`MemOnly`, `pages`.`PgTitle`, `pagetypes`.`PageType`, `p2a`.`PgTitle` AS `UnderPageTitle`, Count(distinct `sub-pages`.`PgID`) AS `SubPages`, Count(distinct comments.`CmID`) AS `comments`, `pages`.`Under_PgID`, CONCAT_WS (' ',rotarians.FirstName, rotarians.Surname) AS `Author`, CONCAT (LEFT (`rotarians` .`FirstName` ,1), LEFT(`rotarians` .`Surname` ,1)) AS `Authinitials`, Count(distinct`pageimages`.`PicID`) AS `Slideshow`, pages.MODisplay, pages.PgDesc, Count(distinct`pageforms`.`FormID`) AS FormID FROM `pages` Inner Join `pagetypes` ON `pagetypes`.`PgTypeID` = `pages`.`PgTypeID` Left Join `pages` AS `p2a` ON `pages`.`Under_PgID` = `p2a`.`PgID` Left Join `pages` AS `sub-pages` ON `sub-pages`.`Under_PgID` = `pages`.`PgID` Left Join `comments` ON `pages`.`PgID` = `comments`.`PgID` Left Join `rotarians` ON `pages`.`Pg_RotID` = `rotarians`.`RotID` Left Join `pageimages` ON `pages`.`PgID` = `pageimages`.`PgID` Left Join `pageforms` ON `pages`.`PgID` = `pageforms`.`PgID` WHERE (`pages`.`ClubID` = ?) AND `pages`.`DistrictNo` IS NULL AND ((`PgTypeID` = ?)) GROUP BY `pages`.`PgID` ORDER BY `pages`.`StartDate` ASC, `pages`.`PgID` DESC

Column 'PgTypeID' in where clause is ambiguous
-------------

However, PgTypeID isn't in my WHERE clause in my recirdset - is this altered by the search? If so, where would I specify pages.PgTypeID?

Would it be on this line - ?

$searchWADApage1->setSearch(array("type"=>"Edit", "comparison"=>"=", "join"=>"AND"), array("PgTypeID"), "d", "PgTypeID");

Thanks again for your help.

You are doing a search against the PgTypeID column, but that column exists in two tables so it is asking you to be more specific.

Update this part:
array("PgTypeID"),

To:
array("TableName.PgTypeID"),

Where TableName is the table you want the search to look at that column value in. That should fix the problem.

Sorry to pester you - everything works except for the text field searches, PgTitle and PgBriefDetails.

I have the following lines, but the text from the form returns 'not found', even though I know the words are there.

$searchWADApage1->setSearch(array("type"=>"Key", "comparison"=>"=", "join"=>"AND", "and"=>", ", "or"=>" ", "start_encap"=>"\"", "end_encap"=>"\""), array("pages.PgTitle"), "s", "".((isset($_GET["PgTitle"]))?$_GET["PgTitle"]:"") ."");
$searchWADApage1->setSearch(array("type"=>"Key", "comparison"=>"=", "join"=>"AND", "and"=>", ", "or"=>" ", "start_encap"=>"\"", "end_encap"=>"\""), array("pages.PgBriefDetails"), "s", "".((isset($_GET["PgBriefDetails"]))?$_GET["PgBriefDetails"]:"") ."");

Thanks

You have "comparison"=>"="

try:
"comparison"=>"includes"
