please see the below code example.

This is my dynamic php starting page with the search form.

 <form action="index.php?v=counselling" method="get">

i have also tried $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] but so far no luck.

what mistake im doing here?

Answer 1

<form action="index.php" method="get">
    <input type="hidden" name="v" value="counselling" />

Send it as a hidden input value along with your search input.
