Hey folks I am trying to implement a search functionality in a website using ajax,php,mysql,jquery.Now my application works fine when I go to a list page(Page with list of items on the site).But I have a search on the index page whose results have to be displayed on the list page.Basic pagination is done using php and works for the links coming from menu,but fails for search.(i.e if redirected from the index page using a search query it does not work)
The search text box:
<form name="homePageSearchForm" method="post" action="cities.php" autocomplete="off">
<!-- <input type="hidden" value="e.g kolte patil life republic, wagholi pune" id="hiddenExData" name="hiddenExData">-->
<div style="padding-top:5px; line-height:20px; width:280px;" class="flt">
<div class="flt"><strong>Locality, City, Builder or Project name</strong><span style="color:#FF3300;">*</span><br>
<div class="flt"><input type="text" onBlur="if(this.value=='') this.value='e.g kolte patil life republic, wagholi pune';" onFocus="if(this.value=='e.g kolte patil life republic, wagholi pune') this.value='';" value="e.g kolte patil life republic, wagholi pune" name="SearchValue" id="searchId" title="Search" class="headerinput ac_input" autocomplete="off">
List page div where content has to be displayed.
<div class="flt width710" id="displayProp">
<div style="margin-top:10px;" class="flt mapnewalert"> <?php //echo ucfirst($_SESSION['$city']) ?></div>
<div style="float:right" id="toppagesel">
<?php
echo $pages->display_pages();
echo $pages->display_items_per_page();
/* if(isset($localitySearch) && $localitySearch!='' && isset($citySearch) && $citySearch!='')
{
$query = "SELECT * from properties inner join cities on properties.city_id=cities.city_id inner join locality on properties.locality_id=locality.locality_id where (cities.city_name like '%".$citySearch."%' and locality.locality_name like '%".$localitySearch."%') and (property_price_min between '78 Lacs' and '80 Lacs') $pages->limit";
}*/
// else
// {
$query = "SELECT * from properties,locality,cities where properties.city_id='".$_SESSION['$cityId']."' and properties.locality_id=locality.locality_id and properties.city_id=cities.city_id $pages->limit";
// }
// echo $query;
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
//$getProperty = $propertyDetails->getPropertyDetailsByCityIdPaginate($_SESSION['$cityId'],$limit);
?>
<?php //echo $pages->display_pages(); ?><?php //echo $pages->display_items_per_page();?>
</div>
</div>
Now on clicking the search button I call a javascript function as follows
<input type="submit" onClick="**handleHomePageSearch(0,'e')**;return false;" value="SEARCH" class="hpnewsubmitbtn">
The js function:
function handleHomePageSearch(buttonEle,e) {
var criteria = document.getElementById("searchCriteria").value;
var searchVal = document.getElementById("searchId").value;
xmlHttpSearchct=GetXmlHttpObject();
var cur_page = document.getElementById("current_page").innerHTML;
var url="fetchCity.php?&searchVal="+searchVal+"&buttonEle="+buttonEle+"&cur_page="+cur_page;
alert(url);
xmlHttpSearchct.open("GET",url,false);
xmlHttpSearchct.send(null);
var Searchres=xmlHttpSearchct.responseText;
**//To get the response**
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function()
{
if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200)
{
document.getElementById('displayProp').innerHTML=Searchres;
}
}
This gives the response back in the form of HTML but i am not able to display it on the list(properties.php) page.Also the pagination does not work if I go using the search values.
The fetchCity.php contans the query for the search and the HTML to return with data.
$searchValue= $_GET['searchVal'];
$buttonEle = $_GET['buttonEle'];
$current_page=$_GET['cur_page'];
$locCity = explode(" ",$searchValue);
$localitySearch = $locCity[0];
$citySearch = $locCity[1];
$query = "SELECT * from properties inner join cities on properties.city_id=cities.city_id inner join locality on properties.locality_id=locality.locality_id where (cities.city_name like '%".$citySearch."%' and locality.locality_name like '%".$localitySearch."%') and (property_price_min between '78 Lacs' and '80 Lacs') $pages->limit";
//echo $query;
exit;
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());

<div class="width710" id="displayProp">
<?php
/*print_r($getProperty);
foreach($result as $property)*/
while($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($result))

I would like to know is my approach right??How can I display the search results on the other page with pagination working.
For reference I will add the link of a reference site with similar functionality.
Here it is: http://www.proptiger.com/
Any kind of suggestions or help would be appreciated.
pagination class:

Here $(".paginate") is the class of the
<li>in my paginator class. I got the answer here Thanks
