I tried that code, but now it gives me the following error:
Warning: Wrong parameter count for mysql_db_query() in
/usr/bus/events/delete.php on line 29

when I send delete.php?event_id=5
(Which is a valid value for the event_id field)..... Any more ideas anyone?
and line 29 is that code that I put in, and it doesn't delete it still.....

Thanks for the help so far, I appreciate it!
