I'm having some trouble with the search field that i am setting up
using PHP and HTML, I am connecting to a database to return proper
information pertaining to something being searched. I originally set
up a search to work like this :

$SQL = "
select id,
name
from repository
where upper(name) like upper('%$search%')
";
$Result=SubmitQuery($db,$SQL);
while (OCIFetch($Result)) {
$repo_id = OCIResult($Result,"ID");
$name = OCIResult($Result,"NAME");
echo"

and display the results accordingly, This was one teer of the
searching, the database would then search modules and files just as
seen above, but I ran into the problem where the correct values are not
being passed, so it was searching all repositories, then all modules,
then all files.... is it possible to search like this:

Repository #1
---Module #1 in Repo#1
------files in Module #1
---Module #2 in Repo #1
------files in Module #2 Repo #1
etc.\
\\
\\
\\
Repository #2
--Module #1 in Repo #2
etc......

is this possible to do a search under a search under a search with SQL
PHP?????

SELECT not tested:

select <fields>
from repository r
join module m on r.rep_id = m.rep_id
join file f on m.mod_id = f.mod_id
where <conditions>
order by <whatever>
limit <something>

With this you'll get something like

rep_id | rep_name | mod_id | mod_name | file_id | file_name | ...
-------+----------+--------+----------+---------+-----------+----
1 | master | 1 | test | 1 | test.php | ...
1 | master | 1 | test | 2 | echo.php | ...
1 | master | 2 | environ | 3 | data.php | ...
2 | slave | 3 | listen | 4 | open.php | ...
....



Then use PHP to format the data however you like best :-)
Maybe putting it all in an array first will make it easier to format as
you need.
