How can multiple search queries be implemented on a webpage using PHP and MySQL?

To implement multiple search queries on a webpage using PHP and MySQL, you can use conditional statements to determine which search query to execute based on user input. This can be achieved by checking the value of a variable or form input to decide which SQL query to run. You can then display the results of the search queries on the webpage accordingly. 

<?php
// Assuming $conn is the MySQL database connection

// Check if a search query was submitted
if(isset($_POST['search'])) {
    $searchTerm = $_POST['searchTerm'];

    // Check which search query to run based on user input
    if($searchTerm == 'query1') {
        $sql = "SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE column1 LIKE '%$searchTerm%'";
    } elseif($searchTerm == 'query2') {
        $sql = "SELECT * FROM table2 WHERE column2 LIKE '%$searchTerm%'";
    }

    // Execute the selected query
    $result = mysqli_query($conn, $sql);

    // Display search results
    while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
        // Display search results here
    }
}
?>
