I am trying to buy a book, and in search engine's results, the book is one price, but the site's lists price?

is different. on campusbooks.com the price for it is listed as $9.00 + 3.99 shipping but when i click on the site it lists it as $153. Am I not looking in the correct place?

How do I echo an error message when there are no hits in a search result in PHP?

Hi, I am a PHP newbie, and I've tried this, but it doesn't work:








$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM book


WHERE BookID = '$bookid' AND Author = '$author' AND Title = '$title' AND Qualification = '$qual' OR (Qualification = '$qual' AND Subject = '$subject' OR Subject = '$other') OR Publisher = '$publisher' AND ISBN = '$isbn'");


echo $result;


if (empty($result)) {


echo 'Error, no such book found! Please check all the details and try again.';


}





Thanks|||Try this :


if(mysql_num_rows($result) %26lt; 1){


echo 'Sorry, no results found to match your search.';


exit;}


If you do not exit it will not display or will go on to show the page possibly over your message. Better is to create a string and include it in the page.

Microsoft Access 2002: How can I search for records? Please Help!?

I work in a book store. I created a table using Access 2002 that lists all the books in overstock by ISBN#, Title, Author, Units in Stock, and Shelf#. Is there any way that I can create a dialogue box, or something similar, that will allow some one to type in the criteria of a certain book, i.e. the ISBN# or part of the title, that will allow them to gain access to rest of the record without having to scroll through the entire list or create a filter? This is a possibility according to the help menu but I am not very familiar with Access so it is all too confusing for me. Please help.|||Pretty hard to give you a step by step here. But, basicallly, what you need to do is to create a form based on your table.





You can create a form using the Form wizard and it is fairly straight forward. Add all the fields in your table to your form when creating it.





Then add a command button from the Access toolbox.


Next create a macro to open the Find function when the button is clicked.





You would want to set Access to open your database and automatically display the form you have constructed. Then you could click the button and enter the ISBN# to pull up the rest of the record.

How did Amazon come to get preferential treatment on Wikipedia's ISBN tool?

If you check out this link as an example:


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Boo鈥?/a>





How is it that Amazon is the only bookseller that got to be listed (along with Google) in the "Online text" portion of the tool results? Who developed that Special:BookSources tool? Who specifically determined that Amazon is the only bookseller that displays online text? Is Amazon the only online bookseller that features some previews of book text? It would appear not:

Could any of this have to do with the fact that in late 2006 Amazon invested $10 million into Jimmy Wales' for-profit corporation, Wikia, Inc.?|||Well, Jimmy Wales is known to have scrubbed clean the wiki-bio (wikispeak: BLP) of a political pundit with a history of legal problems concerning stalking and harassment in exchange for sex. Accordingly, giving an investor preferential links from Wikipedia in exchange for $10 million for a related yet "totally separate" venture hardly seems a stretch. There has long been a culture of cronyism, wired deals and other questionable hijinks at the Wikimedia Foundation ("WMF"), owner of the Wikipedia domains. After four years of waiting, it should not be surprising that Amazon wants to start seeing some return on its investment in Wikia, even if it has to come through the "totally separate" Wikipedia, also co-founded by Wales.





To be fair, it should be said that this is speculation based upon the known history of venality at the WMF. Probably only a small number connected to Amazon or Wales will ever know for sure, unless some "disgruntled former employee" appears and spills the beans. Also, it is probably not true that the WMF is as corrupt or sleazy as the similarly unaccountable IOC or FIFA, but then the IOC and FIFA have had much longer to work at it.|||remember money talks

How to download e-books freely for the following books?

thanks in advance!!!|||It helps if you give title %26amp; authors, because every publication has a different ISBN, and ebooks don't always match the physical books.





Since those seem to be currently-in-print textbooks, it's not likely the author or publisher has released them as free ebooks. (Sometimes they do, or release the first edition and hope people will buy the updated version in print.)





Telling you where to find illegal copies of the books you need is against the TOS, and an illegal act in itself--you're not likely to get much help with that. If you truly need copies and can't afford them, you'll need to either find library copies, or convince someone to help you find used copies.|||You should probably buy them, downloading e-books are illegal and you probably won't find them.|||that is illegal

How can I make a search page in PHP so that searches not entirely accurate can still return hits?

Hi, I am a PHP newbie, and I've tried this, but it doesn't work:

How much do you think its worth?|||I don't think most people care about the ISBN, to be honest. It's more if there's some rare typo (though if your book has a typo, I'm betting many others do, too) or if it's signed by JK Rowling, or there's some hidden message.

ISBNs will differ for paperback and hardcover editions and audiobooks of the same book as well as for US and UK editions, etc. Be extra careful to make sure that you don't make a costly mistake.





**edit: Okay, I just reread your question and realized that I had misunderstood what you wanted to do. I assumed you wanted to special order some books that were not available on the shelves, in which case using the ISBN would be an option.





If you are just wanting to find the books in the store then giving the bookstore clerk a list of ISBNs is a surefire way to make them hate you. If you know the titles of the books you want and can't find them on the shelves or are unsure what section they would be shelved in it is appropriate to ask for assistance but if you think that it's too much work to check for yourself then I wouldn't expect to get too much assistance, you'll probably annoy them and they'll tell you that they don't have any of the books you're looking for in stock.

Calculus Textbook with odd ISBN?

Isbn numbers for textbooks ?

i am searching for textbooks and finding that many books dont have matching isbns when compared to the list the school gave me. the are the same authoir, book, edition, cover,etc. is it safe to by the same title and author, edition and publisher, even if isbn doesnt match?|||Unfortunately not. The only way to be sure that you have the exact same textbook as what is required for your class is to match the ISBNs exactly. Most online vendors should allow you to search by the ISBN to find the correct item. You may also notice that some of the books you find have a different last digit, the check digit which is an exception to the rule. A book with the exact same ISBN except for the last digit is the same book, just usually published by a different company. There are two versions of ISBNs available, ISBN 10 and ISBN 13. Every book has both, but usually ISBN 10 is the same as the ISBN 13 just without the first three numbers. If your school uses custom editions, you may have a hard time finding the materials anywhere else but you should definitely consult your professor if that is the case.

Same textbook, different ISBN number?

The textbooks that my college sells are very expensive. I have tried to look for the same books online, using the ISBN number. I either can't find these books or they are more expensive online. But when I search for the book using the title I find the same exact book (with the same cover, the same authors, etc) but with a different ISBN number. Are the two books the same; Is the school using a different ISBN number to get us to pay for an expensive book, or do the schools get a different edition of the book than what is available online?...|||The best place to get textbooks is http://www.buysellcollege.com





It's actually even cheaper than renting in some cases.|||It could be the more expensive one comes with supplementary CD's or workbooks or access to online material, while the other is just the book. I have seen that happen. If I were you, I'd call your university's bookstore and ask if that book comes with extra material, and if they offer any used textbooks. Or e-mail/call the professor for the class that the book will be used in and ask them if there is a difference between the two, and provide links to them so they can see the difference.

ISBN 13 numbers on a book published in 1981?

A friend wrote a book back in 1981, with Interweave Press publishing it. I did a search to find out if it's still available or 'sold out' as a book with that publisher and saw that it had two ISBN numbers. Wikipedia tells me the ISBN10 was the standard, and the ISBN 13 is the new format after 2007 for new books. Hers was not re-issued and she has not had a royalty check in 10 years from them.





I'm wondering if the new ISBN 13 number is a standard update for out of print books, or if the book was reissued and she has not been paid by them. She sort of dropped out due to medical conditions and thought the book was now out of print, but I'm not so sure. She's dirt poor and I don't want to see her ripped off.





I sent an email to Interweave press asking if the book was reissued, but haven't heard back yet. Anyone know if a publisher would continue to publish a book without paying the author?|||ISBN13 is backwards-compatible with ISBN10 - you can convert a 10-digit ISBN to a 13-digit one without having to allocate a new number. It doesn't necessarily mean that the publisher has reprinted your friend's book.

What is the difference between ISBN and ISBN-13?

I was on bn.com and I was searching books. When I scrolled down and found the ISBN number I also noticed an ISBN-13 number. Does anyone know the difference and what the ISBN-13 is for?


Here is an example:


http://search.barnesandnoble.com/A-Tale-鈥?/a>


If you just scroll down and view the Product Details you'll find both the ISBN and ISBN-13.|||ISBN is the International Standard Book Number. Traditionally this was a 10 digit number, but there are so many items being published that 10 digits just isn't doing it anymore. Now publishers and libraries are making way for the 13 digit ISBN number which will allow for many more books to be given a unique number. ISBN 13 started in 2007.





It's kind of like when we used to just have a 7 digit phone number, but when we started to run out of numbers there were overlays and now people have to give their full phone number with area code. 13 digit ISBN means more items can be given a unique number in future.





Hope this helps!|||The ISBN is the International Standard Book Number. The ISBN-13 is the UPC barcode that is scanned at the POS when you buy the book. You'll note that the ISBN is fully contained within the ISBN-13. The 13 digit standard is in wide use for POS scanning purposes so it was a natural to expand the ISBN to fit the UPC barcode standard.

How do you search an array which is in an Array List? C#?




Create a program which accepts input by the user about many books as he wants.





The book details which the user will input will consist of the following:

http://www.textbooksrus.com/search/bookd鈥?/a>


I dont want any markings inside the book, like highlights and notes and I hope its the exact same edition.


Thanks !|||Publisher markings would not be highlighting or notes, they'd be something placed on the outside of the book or inside cover by the publisher. These markings could be any number of things, so if you're concerned you should ask the seller.





As the above poster says, it's likely the mark is just a black line on the outside edge of the book. But it's also possible that the book is marked as an uncorrected proof copy and has "NOT FOR SALE" printed on the cover. These books are often given out free to reviewers, librarians, and people in the book business for promotional purposes. This would explain why you'd be getting such a good deal.





For a novel, it usually doesn't matter much if you're reading an uncorrected proof. You can still enjoy the story even if there are mistakes in the text. For a textbook, it's possible that there could be important things missing like citations or graphs. The seller is claiming that the content is identical to student editions, but it's impossible to know for sure until you have the book.





I'd guess this book is probably fine to use for your class, but since you can't be certain it's up to you to decide whether saving the money is worth the small risk that the book isn't exactly what you wanted.|||Judging from the information I found on a couple of sites, publisher markings generally refers to a black mark along the edge of the pages, so that it can't be returned to the publisher. The inside and all the content should be fine.

What is isbn and when searching for a book does it have to be the same?

ISBN is an abbreviation for "international standard book number."





An ISBN is specific to an edition and publication of a book. For example, Shakespeare's play Macbeth is published by 20+ publishing companies; each publishing company's version has a different ISBN number. Also, if any of those publishing companies updates their version for any reason, the updated version gets a brand new number.





As far as whether the ISBN has to be the same, a lot of teachers require that students get the very same ISBN because it ensures that all students will be on the same page in the book, and if you cite or reference a page number, it's going to be the same in all books. This is less important if it's a play, since you can simply look at line numbers.





Hope this helps and makes sense!|||The ISBN is a 13-digit number (formerly 10 digits) that uniquely identifies books and related media published internationally. The purpose of the ISBN is to establish and identify one title or edition of a title from one specific publisher and is unique to that edition, allowing for more efficient marketing of products by booksellers, universities, wholesalers and distributors. To learn more about the ISBN, visit the official ISBN website.

I need to purchase this book by monday for a class, and my teacher told us the ISBN was 0-06-440424-2, but when I search it, the only way it buy it is online. Then I noticed there was the same book, in hardcover and paperback again, but for in-store purchase. But, they had a different ISBN #. I was just wondering if they were the same book with a different ISBN number????????????|||The hardcover and paperback versions of a book will have different ISBNs, even if they're the same edition (same text and pictures). This is because the ISBN is used by libraries and bookshops to ensure they can buy exactly the book they want - if you wanted the hardcover and got the paperback instead, you probably wouldn't be very pleased.





The text should be the same as the ISBN that your teacher told you buy, because fictional books are very rarely revised beyond correcting typos. You might find that the pagination is different - if your teacher says "turn to page 23 and tell me..." that part in your copy might be on page 22 or 24. But if you're paying attention to what's happening in the story, that shouldn't be a problem :-)|||I dont' know if this will actually answer your question, but the paperback version and hardcover version will have different ISBNs. So, if one is hardcover and the other paperback then that can account for the different ISBNs. Are they the same edition?|||It is the same book. The paperback and hardcover versions have different ISBN - but the contents are the same. This is going to change in the next few years - and there will be other changes as well, as ebooks are brought into the ISBN fold.

How Can I Purchase an Instructor's solutions manual for a Physics Text book?

Hi, I am trying to purchase the instructor's solutions manual for "Physics for scientists and Engineers" third edition by Fishbane, Gasiorowicz and Thornton. The ISBN for Volume 1 is 013-149-6794


The ISBN for Volumes two and three is: 013-144-7416. The ISBN's don't seem to come up on any ISBN search. Can anybody help?|||You would have to deal directly with the publisher's sales representatives. Keep in mind that teacher's editions don't sell as many copies, so their prices are much higher. A single volume teacher's edition usually runs from anywhere from $300 - $500.





It would be best to speak to your department head since they usually deal with the sales reps. If you're a student, that obviously won't work.|||Hello Sir. My friend has this manual email her.

ISBN: same ISBN and edition but different year - does this matter?

I'm purchasing my college textbooks online and have noticed that many of the textbooks I have found have the same ISBN and edition as the professor has requested; however, the year is different.





For example, for the textbook "Legal Environment" - my professor has posted the following information:


Author: BEATTY


Edition:4TH 11


ISBN: 9780324786545





I searched the ISBN and found the textbook edition: 4TH 10.


Does this mean the content will be any different?|||As far as I can tell from purchasing my books as long as it is the same edition it should be okay. if you have a way to contact your professor it might be a good question to ask him or her.

Need help searching for available ISBN numbers?

I am looking to find available ISBN numbers for some books I'm writing but do they have to be registered specially or can I just make one with the ISBN maker program I have? I have tried searching but I can't really find what I am looking for. Help.|||The numbers need to be registered./

If two books have same ISBN but published in different year, will the contents be the same?

I want to buy a college textbook and searched with the ISBN. The professor indicated the publishing year to be 2009; however, the sellers on amazon/ebay are selling the same book but published in 2008. Will the contents in the textbook be the same?|||I can't answer your question about this specific book, but in general, take a look at the "edition" of the book. If, for example, the 2009 printing is a second edition, you want to make sure the 2008 version is the same. There is a better than likely chance that a newer edition will have updated or revised material. You may want to ask the prof if there is any specific edition of the book he wants you to read. (I'm sure he or she will empathize with you needing to save a few dollars and not buying it form the campus bookstore.)





I hope this helps. Best of luck in your studies.

Is it legal to change and ISBN number?: My school bookstore posts their books with different ISBN #.?

My bookstore on campus will post a different ISBN for their books so I can't get the ISBN and search for the books online. It is really annoying because they ommit just enough information (Full title and edition) so you can't look up the book at other sources. I have to go to the bookstore copy down the real ISBN and then look it up online. Is this legal?|||No.. illegal|||Of course it's legal. Not wise, but it's legal. It's their merchandise and their posting.





The best you can do is let them know how you feel about it.|||Nothing illegal about that. Sorry. So long as the book is in their possession, it is THEIR book. They can do with it what they please.

Where is the pattern from? What company/brand/etc? What is the name of the pattern?

There are some great Sellers on Ebay with old sewing patterns, from years gone by and reproduced wonderfully. I have purchased many old patterns that way. Many were not re-copied and in original packaging.


But, searching that way takes a lot of time.

If your professor assigned the Fourth Edition and you bought the Second Edition, there could be things missing from your book that are necessary.|||Yes, the newer copyright has updated material (added chapter(s) and/or revisions.

How do you search by isbn on ebay?

You could just put the isbn in the search terms, but it will only work if sellers include the isbn in the item description. In my experience buying books on ebay, the descriptions tend to be pretty sketchy.





If you can't find something you want on ebay, Alibris.com and Abebooks.com (if you're looking for used books) typically have full listings that include isbn, and a lot of the sellers that go on ebay also list through those two sites.

What is the largest isbn search engine you know of?

Im looking for an engine that looks at atleast over 100 sites for books.|||WorldCat is the world's largest network of library content and services:


http://www.worldcat.org/advancedsearch

If you're interested in purchasing a book rather than borrowing from a library you could look at Books in Print. This database is available on many library Websites. You will need a library card or student ID to login and have free access. Otherwise, you may want to call the library and ask.
