The % is intentional. It is a wild card character in the query so that the term will be found within other phrases.

Above paste


$numresults=mysql_query($sql);

$numrows=mysql_num_rows($numresults);

And then paste this code in the place you want the message to show up



			    if ($numrows == 0)

                   {

                    echo "Sorry, your search: " . $term . " returned zero results";

                   }

				   else {

				    echo "Search Result for " . $term . "";

				   }
			?>

This is excellent! Does anyone has a simple script like this for entire site content search?
