I have a search form that looks up information in a SQL DB, the data has a column of abbreviations for a product type. I want to upload the data with the abbreviations and use the PHP to expand the text in the search results.
For example PF = Prefinished
Can this be done or will this slow down the search exponentially?
if ($producttype == "PF") {
$producttype == "Prefinished"
}
else{
// Else
}
