What are some resources or tutorials available for creating a search form in PHP?

To create a search form in PHP, you can use HTML to create the form elements and PHP to handle the form submission and search functionality. You can use SQL queries to search a database for relevant data based on the user's input. Additionally, you can use PHP to display the search results in a user-friendly format. 

<?php
// Assuming you have a database connection established

if(isset($_POST['search'])) {
    $search = $_POST['search'];
    
    $query = "SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE column_name LIKE '%$search%'";
    $result = mysqli_query($connection, $query);
    
    // Display search results
    while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
        echo $row['column_name'] . "<br>";
    }
}
?>

<form method="post" action="">
    <input type="text" name="search" placeholder="Search...">
    <input type="submit" value="Search">
</form>
