Trying to make search database

[portal]

Allo all. I need some help with an sql database I have. I have an sql database of items, and I have a php page, where I'd like to allow people to search for an item. Not just by name, but by clicking checkboxes of attributes that make up some fields in the database.

The link is here if that description confused anyone. Sorry, not so good with words:

That's not completely done and ready, I wanted to get the look done first, to know how this was going to be, and now I'm wondering what php to use. Is there a site someone can refer me to?

I want that if they put part of a keyword in the name box, it'll come up with all things like that, rather than just one search result. You know, list everything to it, without repeating though.

Is not too complicated to make your search engine. Simply use a query like
SELECT FROM yourtable WHERE yoursearch LIKE '%$search%'

In this case your input form field must be named "search" and "yoursearch" is the field of the table where you´re going to search.
The '% means that it will try to find anything that contains the search criteria. If you type "A" for example it will look everything that contains an "A"

You also can use BETWEEN and = to get more results

You can make several combinations betweens fields and table

Hope this can help you
