Thank you for your replies...
I have it showing the last name... but what I can't figure out is how for it to reference to the whole entry.
So, for example, when someone enters to search for the last name "Smith," all the "Smiths" are pulled up, sorted by first name and linked by id.
How do I do this?
thank you very much, Hedges
SELECT * FROM dbName.tableName WHERE lastname LIKE '%$lastname%' ORDER BY firstname
And look here for how to execute your query...
