Hi guys I'm trying to make a search engine in my website. Search engine must browse in a category and after search must display all results. But the engine doesn't display the results.
Example: X user is searching in PC-games for Y game. The X user type in text area the name of game and then click button search. After search script doesn`t display the results of Y game. Here is my script
<form action="search.php" method="POST">
<p><br />
<input name="q" type="hidden" />
<font color="black">Hunt Data:</font>
<input name="qfront" type="text" style="width: 230px" name="nume"id="nume" />
<select name="category">
<option value="0">All</option>
<option value="1">PC-Games</option>
<option value="2">Console</option>
<option value="3">Movies</option>
<option value="4">Music</option>
<option value="5">XXX</option>
<option value="6">Windows</option>
<option value="7">Linux</option>
<option value="8">Software</option>
<option value="9">Documents</option>
<input type="submit" value="Search" />
</p>
</form>
PHP script
<html>
<body>
<center>
<font color="black" size="4">
<?php
//define each directory here, the index starts with 0 == all and so on.
$categorydir = array('/Category/All/', '/Category/PCGames/', '/Category/Console/', '/Category/Movies/', '/Category/Music/', '/Category/XXX/', '/Category/Windows/', '/Category/Linux/', '/Category/Software/', '/Category/Documents/');
//if option selected and its valid number
if (isset($_POST['category']))
if(ctype_digit($_POST['category']) && isset($categorydir[$_POST['category']])) {
if(array_key_exists($_POST['category'], $categorydir) && is_dir($categorydir[$_POST['category']])) {
$handle = opendir($categorydir[$_POST['category']]); //LINE 14
$files = scandir($handle);
echo 'Results of search:<br></br>';
foreach($files as $file){ //LINE 17
echo($file);
}
} else {
echo 'target directory not found';
}
}
?>
