Search query

[jandrews]

Hey guys,

I have included a very simple search script on my site. It basically just matches submitted form data with fields in my database and shows any results that match.

But if a user decides to delete the url variable (path/results.php?search=), all of the rows in the database are shown.

How do I stop this from happening?

if (empty($_GET['search']) || !isset($_GET['search'])) {
  //alert or something
} else {
  //do something with the not-empty search
}
