title: how do I display php results in div on same page
body: <p>I cannot figure out how to have my search results displayed on the same page, in a div, that has the search bar...
  here is my php..
  <code>
      
  
  <pre><code>  // Get the search variable from URL

  // check for an empty string and display a message.
  if ($trimmed == "")
    {
    echo "&lt;p&gt;Please enter a search...&lt;/p&gt;";
    exit;
    }
  
  // check for a search parameter

  // Build SQL Query  
  $query = "select * from TABLE where ID like \"%$trimmed%\"  
    order by ID"; // EDIT HERE and specify your table and field names for the SQL query
