[TwitterRooms]

hi guys me again this is what i have

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE firstname LIKE '%".$searchterm."%'"); 

which works just great BUT if i want to seach

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE lastname LIKE '%".$searchterm."%'"); 

how so search ALL rows/columns firstname,lastname,username ect

P.S i'm getting it slowly lol

It looks like you want to search through multiple columns in one table as opposed to searching through multiple tables, but let me know if I am wrong.

Try this

SELECT * FROM table WHERE (lcase(concat(firstname, lastname, username)) LIKE '%$searchterm%')
