Witam mam pytanie odnośnie konstrukcji zapytania mysql. Mianowicie mam pole z wprowadzeniem symbolu urządzenia.

[HTML] pobierz, plaintext 
Symbol:
<input type="text" id="sym"/>
<input type="button" onclick="symbol()" value="Szukaj"/>

Dalszy fragment w javascript

function symbol() {
     var sym = document.getElementById('sym').value;
 
     var searchUrl = 'phpsqlsearch_genxml.php?sym=' + sym;
     GDownloadUrl(searchUrl, function(data) {
       var xml = GXml.parse(data);
       var markers = xml.documentElement.getElementsByTagName('marker');
 
 
 
       if (markers.length == 0) {
         alert('Nie znaleziono rekordu ');
         map.setCenter(new GLatLng(53.748711, 18.938281), 5);
         return;
       }
      Clear();
 
       var bounds = new GLatLngBounds();
       for (var i = 0; i < markers.length; i++) {
         var name = markers[i].getAttribute('name');
         var address = markers[i].getAttribute('address');
         var point = new GLatLng(parseFloat(markers[i].getAttribute('lat')),
                                 parseFloat(markers[i].getAttribute('lng')));
         var category = markers[i].getAttribute("category");
				 var html = "<b>"+name+"<\/b><p>"+address;
 
         var marker = createMarker(point, name, html, category);
         map.addOverlay(marker);
 
         bounds.extend(point);
       }
       map.setCenter(bounds.getCenter(), map.getBoundsZoomLevel(bounds));
			 makeSidebar();
     });
   }

Niestety na mapie nie wyświetlają się rekordy o danym wyborze. Podejrzewam że błąd leży w konstrukcji $query. Pls o poradę

Już rozwiązałem problem. Poniżej rozwiązanie

[PHP] pobierz, plaintext 
<?php  
$dom = new DOMDocument("1.0");
$node = $dom->createElement("markers");
$parnode = $dom->appendChild($node);
if(isset($_GET["sym"])){
 $sym = htmlspecialchars(stripslashes(strip_tags(trim($_GET['sym']))), ENT_QUOTES);
 
include ("database.php");
$query = "SELECT * FROM markers WHERE symbol LIKE '%$sym%'";
$result = mysql_query($query);
 
$result = mysql_query($query);
if (!$result) {
  die("Invalid query: " . mysql_error());
}
 
header("Content-Type: text/xml");
 
while ($row = @mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
  $node = $dom->createElement("marker");
  $newnode = $parnode->appendChild($node);
	 $newnode->setAttribute("symbol", $row['symbol']);
  $newnode->setAttribute("name", $row['name']);
  $newnode->setAttribute("address", $row['address']);
  $newnode->setAttribute("lat", $row['lat']);
  $newnode->setAttribute("lng", $row['lng']);
	$newnode->setAttribute("category", $row['cit']);
}
 
 
 
echo $dom->saveXML();
