Why does this query only show one result?

Question

The query below will be used a search script. For some reason it won\'t return all results where either condition is true. What am i doing wrong?

$sql = \"SELE         


        

Answer 1

You are printing outside of while. Which means, no matter how many results you have, only the one will be printed.

Either print inside the loop

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($query))
{
    $name = htmlspecialchars($row['name']);
    $code = htmlspecialchars($row['id_code']);
    print("$code: $name
 
");
}

or collect the variables in an array while looping and use them after the loop as you like

$result_array = array();
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($query))
{
    $name = htmlspecialchars($row['name']);
    $code = htmlspecialchars($row['id_code']);

    $result_array[] = array(
        'name' => $name,
        'code' => $code
    );
}
print_r($result_array);
