Using Switch with a GET Request
Hello everyone.
I have a page with 3 separate drop down choices.
Search SHEC Departments
Search SJCF Departments
Search SHEC Employees
I'd like to show the results of the search on the same page. I'm trying to determine what SQL query to run based on what SELECT button they push.
I'm having a issue trying to use a switch with $_GET. Here is an example of what I have.
Sorry if the code is sloppy, I've been trying a bunch of things and have not organized it yet.
At them moment the page displays, however making a selection from the dropdowns and hitting the submit button does not display any of the switch echos.PHP Code:<?php
require"../includes/dept_mssql.php"; //Connect to the Department database
require"../includes/emp_mssql.php"; //Conect to the Employee database
//show all errors
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', '3')
?>
