PHP search in one table only

I have one member table i开发者_Python百科n mysql database, all i need is search a member in that table by first name. Is there a quick and dirty solution in this ? Thanks

Are you looking for something like this ?

mysql_query("SELECT * FROM Members WHERE firstName  ='".mysql_real_escape_string($firstName)."'");

edited the solution from Serty was of course the best
