not getting required result

[AkaneNatsumi]

void search(){void output(void);
char title[20],;
char *p;
clrscr();


i=0;
char *t;
clrscr();
printf("Report Title for Search:");
fflush(stdin);
scanf("%[^\n]",&p);


do{
t=strstr(list[i].title,p);
if(t!=NULL)
output();
i++;
}
while(i<10);

Info:Program that stores information about reports .the above function searches the report according to its title. list is the name of the structure that stores the records.

why i'm using strstr:
for eg. there is a report titled 'report on tigers'

i want the report information to be output if someone searches for 'tiger'

Output:displays all the entries i have made till now

file is attached.please reply soon and thanks in advance

Your code was short enough to be posted here in [code][/code] bbcode tags instead of attaching it as a file.

There are a few things that you need to do immediately:

• Change the source file extension from ".CPP" to ".c". If you use a C-only compiler or the correct compiler options, this might not matter, but you probably aren't, hence you are probably compiling your C code as C++ instead of C.
• Indent your code properly. You should also format your code such that function definitions have at least one blank line in between.
• Get rid of the dependency on <conio.h>. You most likely don't need it. This also means getting rid of the non-standard functions like clrscr and getch.
• void main should be int main
• Get rid of fflush(stdin) as it results in undefined behaviour.
• Get rid of your use of goto, most likely by using a loop. You are not qualified to use goto.

When you are done with these changes, post the updated code.

I can't stop laughing, reminds me of me... Not you but the other person I was in so deep once I couldn't see a way out I looked at goto and thought for a second it was the only way. As I looked left and then right in my empty room I clicked delete file.
