Creating Ajax-Based Data Search Features Using PHP, jQuery and MySql

It is common in a website or web application to have a data search feature based on certain keywords. For example, searching for book data based on the title of the book can also search based on the author of the book. This search feature makes it very easy for users to search data. So there is no reason not to implement it on the website or web application that we are developing.

In this article, I will show you how to create an article data search feature based on the title. Unlike search features in general, here we will implement Ajax to communicate with PHP to get data from the database which then the data will be displayed on the search page without any reloading process.
