Build Secure PHP Search Function
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I'm seeking a developer to create a robust search function for my website. Users should be able to input search terms into a form field, and the relevant records from a MySQL database should be displayed on a PHP page. The database is straightforward, containing columns for ID, Timestamp, Title, and Post.
Only the Title column should be searched.
The title and content of the post should be displayed on the output page.
Key Requirements:
- Implement a search function with a minimum of 3 characters required for queries.
- Display search results in a list format on the PHP page.
- Show a 'No results found' message if no content matches the search terms.
- Ensure the code is SQL injection-proof, ideally using prepared statements.
- The code must be compatible with PHP 7 and 8.
- Provide the complete code, including MySQL database connection and HTML for the search form. No design adaptation is needed.
Ideal Skills and Experience:
- Proficiency in PHP and MySQL
- Experience with secure coding practices, especially SQL injection prevention
- Ability to write clean, efficient, and compatible code for PHP 7 and 8
- Familiarity with creating user-friendly search functionalities
I'm looking forward to seeing your solutions for this project!
