So I am writing script for my cookie app. And This script works just fine in another page.php to search for cookies but I been stuck 2 days and loop wont start and search_result return false most of the times. Is my bindparam wrong or have I missed some basic indenting? I want to have this table for user comments on specific cookies. to search for. I am writing this in danger get banned my last question probably. I like stack overflow but its not for beginners I guess. All feedback is welcome I don't know what is wrong when almost identic script worked before this. regards. don
ps baaaa is showing sometimes and the loop don't show and even though I have ie bak in table nothing shows, and I have been looking for similar posts but nothing is as my problem.
