Hi
I'm building little script (movie collection).
The problem is that when:
-there is no results - browser is showing a communicate and redirecting back to the root (index.php) after 2 sec
-input is less then 2 char - browser is showing a communicate and redirecting back to the root (index.php) after 2 sec
to test it go to:
[url]

[/url]
code for search part of the application --Code: Select all
else if(isset($_POST['submit'])||isset($_POST['search'])) // when search button is pressed
{
echo "
