php connection problem

[yeshello54]

Here is my problem. I have a small php page that has a search function that returns the table that you search. It works fine . but my problem is that i dont want the data to show up until the user hits search. as of now when you go to the webpage all of the data tables are displayed and dont change untill you submit a new search. Any Ideas on how to fix this..

Thanks.

check if the search form has been submitted (e.g. empty $_POST array), otherwise don’t display the data.

Yes of course how simple. Thank you.

solved with one line of code

if ($_POST)
{
do something
}
