Well, first do what everyone has told you: change @results = $sth->fetchrow_array to @row = $sth->fetchrow_array. What I was suggesting by asking you if there was a param('Value') was that you should check in your script if something was entered in the field before attempting to query the database using the field. Yes, you have a field with that name in your form, but your script so far has no way to tell if the user put anything in that fields before clicking "submit".
