I am trying to create a search form in my codeigniter site header, however everytime the form is submitted, I receive a 404 error saying the page cannot be found! I have attempted to create a link to a test page and this gave me the same error.
Please observe my code below.
view(site_header)
<?php echo doctype(); ?> <html lang=”en”> <link href=”<?php echo base_url(); ?>styles/style.css” type=”text/css” rel=”stylesheet”/> <head>
<title>/title>
<div id="container">
<div id="search">
<?php
echo form_open('search_keyword');
echo form_label("Stumble a search ", "searchfor");
echo form_input("search","search");
echo form_submit("getSearch","Search");
echo form_close(); ?>
</div>
</div>
</head>
</html> model (model_search)
<?php class Model_search extends CI_Model {
public function get_results($search_term){
$query = $this->db->query('SELECT embed, title FROM videos WHERE tags LIKE '%$search_term%' order by RAND() LIMIT 1');
return $query->result();
}
} ?> Controller (site.php) default controller
<?php
if ( ! defined(‘BASEPATH’)) exit(‘No direct script access allowed’);
class Site extends CI_Controller { public function index(){ $this->home(); }
public function home(){
$this->load->model("model_get");
$data["results"] = $this->model_get->getRand();
$this->load->view("site_header");
$this->load->view("site_content", $data);
$this->load->view("site_footer");
}
public function search_keyword()
{
$this->load->model('model_search');
$search_term = $this->input->post('search');
$data['results'] = $this->model_search->get_results($search_term);
$this->load->view('site_header');
$this->load->view('search_content',$data);
$this->load->view('site_footer');
}
}
?> Results page (search_content)
<body>
<link href=”<?php echo base_url(); ?>styles/style.css” type=”text/css” rel=”stylesheet”/>
<div id=”container”>
<div id=”intro”>
<?php echo heading(“Search Results”,1);?>
</div>
<div id =”content”>
Stumble videos related to <?php echo $search_term; ?>
<?php
foreach ($results as $row) {
$title = $row->title;
$vid = $row->embed;
}
echo heading($title, 3);
echo $vid;
?>
</div>
</div>
</body> perhaps I am missing something obvious, however I think it may be to do with my .htaccess file which is posted below
(.htaccess)
