Question

I want a quick search on my website. If a value is entered and matched with my preferred keywords, it will redirect you to that page.

So far this is what I got:

<form method="get" action="redirect.php" > 
<input id="search" name="search" type="text" value="Search Here" />
<input name="submit" type="submit" value="Go" />
</form>


<?php

 if(isset($_GET['submit']));

 $product1_keywords = array('animal feeds', 'weanrite', 'Wean Rite');
 // my preffered keywords


 $search = $_GET['search'];
 // caller of entered value on text field  ???


if ($search = $product1_keywords) {
// if value of text field is matched with my preferred keywords


    // Redirect page if match
header('Location: http://localhost/equalivet_2/#products/wean_rite.html');
}

else {

// Redirect page if not match
header('Location: http://localhost/equalivet_2/not_found.html');
}

    ?>

Help me please. Thank you.

I think what you’re looking for is in_array which you would use like this:

<?php

if(isset($_GET['submit']));

$product1_keywords = array('animal feeds', 'weanrite', 'Wean Rite');
// my preferred keywords

$search = $_GET['search']; 
// caller of entered value on text field  ???

if(in_array($search , $product1_keywords)) {

  // if value of text field is matched with my preferred keywords

  // Redirect page if match
  header('Location: http://localhost/equalivet_2/#products/wean_rite.html');

} else {

  // Redirect page if not match
  header('Location: http://localhost/equalivet_2/not_found.html');

}
