I'm trying to filter the search results of my MySQL database, I am wanting to filter the results by selecting values from two drop down boxes, the first box being Club and the second being Division so I can filter the results by Division and Club.
My issue is that when I make a selection in the club field nothing happens, I can select from the Division field and the results will display the selected division but nothing happens when I select by club.

UPDATE: I changed the following code from this:
if ($_REQUEST["club"]='') {
$search_string = " AND (club LIKE '%".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["club"])."%' OR (division LIKE '%".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["division"])."%')";
}
to this:
if ($_REQUEST["club"]<>'') {
$search_club = " AND (club LIKE '%".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["club"])."%' OR (club LIKE '%".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["club"])."%')";
}
and now it will allow me to filter by club and division but I still can't do just by club alone!
