Can someone tell me how I can find out why I am getting errors executing queries when I try to delete items from a table? I have 2 files... file 1. - Queries database, displays results with option to delete record using a check box, code is as follows... <?php require '../scripts/db.php'; $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM cur_inv",$dbh) or die("Could not execute query, please try again later"); echo "<table border=\"0\" class=\"table-body\" width=\"100%\"><form name=\"rem_inv\" method=\"post\" action=\"done2.php3\"> <tr><td align=\"center\" colspan=\"3\"><font size=\"4\"><B>Current Inventory</B></font><hr color=\"333333\"></td></tr>"; $count = -1; while ($myrow = mysql_fetch_row($result)) { $count ++; echo "<tr><td width=\"30%\"><B>Type Of Car: </B></td><td>"; printf(mysql_result($result,$count,"car_type")); echo "</td><td><input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"cars\" value=\"".$myrow[id]."\">remove</td> </tr>\n"; echo "<tr><td width=\"30%\"><B>Model Of Car: </B></td><td>"; printf(mysql_result($result,$count,"car_model")); echo "</td></tr>\n"; echo "<tr><td width=\"30%\"><B>Year Of Car: </B></td><td>"; printf(mysql_result($result,$count,"car_year")); echo "</td></tr>\n"; echo "<tr><td width=\"30%\"><B>Price Of Car: </B></td><td>$"; printf(mysql_result($result,$count,"car_price")); echo "</td></tr>\n"; echo "<tr><td width=\"30%\"><B>VIN Of Car: </B></td><td>"; printf(mysql_result($result,$count,"car_vin")); echo "</td></tr><tr><td colspan=\"3\"><hr color=\"333333\"></td></tr>\n"; } echo "<tr><td><input type=\"submit\" name=\"delete\" value=\"delete\"></td></tr></form></table>"; ?> file 2. - takes variable of checkbox and then queries db trying to delete any record based on the id. code is as follows... <?php require '../scripts/db.php'; $sql = @mysql_query("DELETE FROM $table_name WHERE $id = 'id'",$dbh) or die("Could not execute query, please try again later"); print("changes made"); ?> I have been trying everything under the sun and cannot get this to work. please help.
