Sorry to bother this list again, but I don't get the point... :-(

I need the rowid for later updates by a user form. So how can I issue a
select clause with 'WHERE rid=3D:rid'? Don't I need this for the *update*
clause???

This is what I thought of:
1.) select foo, bar, rid from masterdata
2.) let user select data set to update with 'update.php?rowid=ROWID'
3.) write changes to database: update foo, bar values (FOO, BAR) where
rowid=ROWID'

And what's about that colon? Is there any special meaning in PHP?

I'd highly appreciate your help/answer! Many thanks in advance
