Dear Friends of MediaWiki, Problem: can't get any search results from my Sanskrit word look up using index.php as below. printf('<a href="http://192.168.0.248:8087/index.php?search=' . $word . ' " &go=GO HTTP/1.1">%s</a> ', $word); It queried from the same display of Sanskrit words as described below. Using my own query described below it works. Using index.php and its search it does not return any results.

I found i could make a query that worked with the displayed Sanskrit words looked up in the database. That look up got the records by searching words starting with a specific letter that i gave the UTF8 code for, i.e "\xE0\xA4\x85" for a Sanskrit letter. So clicking on the displayed Sanskrit words i could write a query that returned the word and its definition.

"SELECT si_page, si_title FROM saa_searchindex WHERE si_title = '" . $_GET['search'] . "' order by si_title ");

$search comes from printf('<tr><td><a href=" http://192.168.0.248:8087/skins/mySearch.php?search=' . $word . ' " &go=GO HTTP/1.1">%s</a></td>', $word);

$word comes from the query searching words starting with a specific letter. while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array($result) ) { $word = $row["si_title"];
