MySQLi WHERE LIKE multiple criteria

Question

I have the following example table and attributes:

---------------------------
|  Name  |       Town     |
---------------------------
| Name 1 |      POOLE          


        

Answer 1

As Marc B stated, using explode.

getPlayerTown());

foreach($array as $Town){
  $list = $list ."'%" .$Town ."%', ";
}

$SQL = "SELECT * FROM `table` WHERE `Town` LIKE ANY(" .$list .")";
?>

Please go the smart route and normalize your data. This idea may work, but that doesn't mean it is the best choice.
