trim() will remove leading and trailing spaces.

PS: I suggest you do a bit of your own research before posting. For example, at a minimum look at the PHP man pages of the commands you are using!

Also, this:


PHP Code:
$venue $_GET[venue]; 
should be

PHP Code:
$venue $_GET['venue']; 
... for faster execution time.

I will leave it to you as an exercise to Google the net and find out why.

And please, do more of your own research before asking questions Smilie

If you get in the habit of looking at your log files when trouble shooting a problem, and also reading, at a minimum, the man pages of the PHP commands you are using, you will find that you actually will save more time v. less time.

Edit: I closed this thread because it is not related to MySQL; it is related to poor string formatting. If you wish to work on PHP string formatting, please start a new thread on a specific issue. Thanks.

virtual - Perform an Apache sub-request

SYNOPSIS
bool virtual (string $filename) DESCRIPTION
virtual(3) is an Apache-specific function which is similar to <!--#include virtual...--> in mod_include. It performs an Apache sub-request. It is useful for including CGI scripts or .shtml files, or anything else that you would parse through Apache. Note that for a CGI script, the script must generate valid CGI headers. At the minimum that means it must generate a Content-Type header. To run the sub-request, all buffers are terminated and flushed to the browser, pending headers are sent too. This function is supported when PHP is installed as an Apache module or by the NSAPI server module in Netscape/iPlanet/SunONE webservers. PARAMETERS
o $filename - The file that the virtual command will be performed on. RETURN VALUES
Performs the virtual command on success, or returns FALSE on failure. EXAMPLES
See apache_note(3) for an example. NOTES
Warning The query string can be passed to the included file but $_GET is copied from the parent script and only $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] is filled with the passed query string. The query string may only be passed when using Apache 2. The requested file will not be listed in the Apache access log. Note Environment variables set in the requested file are not visible to the calling script. Note This function may be used on PHP files. However, it is typically better to use include(3) or require(3) for PHP files. SEE ALSO
