Searching a word in a 2d array in c programming - strstr

Question

I am trying to set up a program that when you type /s then a movie title (ex. /s Green Mile it searches for that movie title in the movies array but my strstr function is not working. Also /a adds movie /r shows all movies in database and /q quits program.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
main() {
char movies[1000][64];
int i;
int j = 1;
int k = 0;
int counter = 0;
char buffer[64];
char buffer2[64];
int len;
do {
printf("Enter command for movie database:\n");
fgets(buffer, 64, stdin);
if (buffer[1] == 'a') {
len = strlen(buffer);
if (buffer[len - 1] == '\n')
buffer[len - 1] = '\0';
for(i=3; i<sizeof(buffer); i++) {
movies[counter][k] = buffer[i];
k++;
}
printf("You have chosen to enter a movie in the database.\n");
printf("The movie added to the database is: %s\n", &movies[counter][0]);
counter++;
k = 0;
}
if (buffer[1] == 'q') {
printf("You have chosen to quit.\n");
printf("Goodbye.\n");
}
if (buffer[1] == 's') {
for(i=2; i<sizeof(buffer); i++) {
buffer2[k] = buffer[i];
k++;
}
for (i = 0; i < counter; i++) {
if (strstr(movies[i], buffer2) != NULL) {
printf("Found %s in position %d,%s\n", buffer2, i + 1, movies[i]);
printf("Index of Movie is %d.\n", i + 1);
}
}
k = 0;
}
if (buffer[1] == 'r') {
printf("You have choosen to report movies in database\n");
printf("These are the movies you have watched:\n");
for( i = 0; i < counter; i++ ) {
printf("%d: %s\n", j, &movies[i][0]);
j++;
}
printf("\n");
j = 1;
}
} while (buffer[1] != 'q');
}

Revised code.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
main() {
char movies[1000][64];
int counter = 0;
char buffer[64];
char * movieTitle = &buffer[3];
while(true) {
printf("Enter command for movie database:\n");
fgets(buffer, 64, stdin);
//replace terminator every time
int len = strlen(buffer);
if (buffer[len - 1] == '\n')
buffer[len - 1] = '\0';
if(strstr(buffer, "/a") && counter < 1000) {
strcpy(movies[counter], movieTitle);
printf("You have chosen to enter a movie in the database.\n");
printf("The movie added to the database is: %s\n", &movies[counter][0]);
counter++;
}
else if (strstr(buffer, "/s")) {
for (int i = 0; i < counter; i++) {
if (strcmp(movies[i], movieTitle) == 0) {
printf("Found %s in position %d,%s\n", movieTitle, i + 1, movies[i]);
printf("Index of Movie is %d.\n", i + 1);
}
}
}
else if (strstr(buffer, "/r")) {
printf("You have choosen to report movies in database\n");
printf("These are the movies you have watched:\n");
for( i = 0; i < counter; i++ ) {
printf("%d: %s\n", i + 1, &movies[i][0]);
}
printf("\n");
}
else if (strstr(buffer, "/q")) {
printf("You have chosen to quit.\n");
printf("Goodbye.\n");
break;
}
else {
printf("unrecognized command");
}
}
}
