Hi Folks,
I am having real trouble with my code. Could somebody have a look at it for me to see what I am doing wrong please? The code is pasted below.
Code:
 <html>
<head>
<title>B&B cars</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Boys and Babes cars</h1>
  <?php   
   //Some short variable declared
     $searchtype=$_POST['searchtype'];
     $searchterm=trim($_POST['searchterm']);

  if (!$searchtype || !$searchterm) {
      echo 'You did not enter any search term.';
  exit;
   }

  if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
       $searchtype = addslashes($searchtype);
       $searchterm = addslashes($searchterm);
     }

     @ $db = new mysqli('localhost', 'root', '', 'cars');

     if (mysqli_connect_error()) {
         echo 'Error: Was not able to connect.';
 
       exit;
    }

   $query = "select * from cars where ".$searchtype." like '%".$searchterm."%'";
    $result = $db->query($query);

    $num_results = $result->num_rows;

    echo '<p>Number of cars found: ".$num_results."</p>';
      
     for ($i=0; $i < $num_results; $++) {
         $row = $result->fetch_assoc();
          echo "<p><strong>". ($i+1).". Car: ";
          echo htmlspecialchars(stripslashes($row['car']));
          echo "</strong>"<br />Make: ";
          echo stripslahes($row['make']);
          echo "<br />Year: ";
          echo stripslashes($row['year']);
          echo "<br />Price: ";
          echo stripslashes($row['price')];
          echo "<p />";
        }
    $result->free();
    $db->close();
   
  ?>
</body>
</html>
When I run the code above, I get the error message below,
Code:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_INC, expecting T_VARIABLE or '$' in C:\xampp\htdocs\menre\products\cars\results.php on line 35.
I will welcome your help please.
Thanks,

Menre
