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.
