If I want to delete a record, I simply put this (the rest is not necessary):
$sql="DELETE from $tableName where ROWID=$rowid"; OK, now the complete routine would be: $deleteStmt="DELETE from $tableName where ROWID=$rowid" ; //Connect to the DB if (!($link=mysql_pconnect($hostName, $userName, $password))) { DisplayErrMsg(spintf("error conectando al host %s por el usuario %s", $hostName, $userName)); exit(); } //Select DB if (!mysql_select_db($databaseName, $link)) { DisplayErrMsg(sprintf("Error seleccionando %s database", $databaseName)); DisplayErrMsg(sprintf("error: %d %s", mysql_errno($link), mysql_error($link))) ; exit(); } //Execute the Statement if (!mysql_query($deleteStmt, $link)) { DisplayErrMsg(sprintf("Error in ejecutando %s mandato", $deleteStmt)) ; DisplayErrMsg(sptintf("error: %d %s", mysql_erro($link), mysql_error($link))) ; exit(); } - Jp At 12:30 31/05/02, Jas wrote: >I think I am missing something: >$db_name = "database"; > $table_name = "auth_users"; > $sql = "DELETE user_id, f_name, l_name, email_addy, un, pw FROM $table_name >WHERE user_id = \"$user_id\", $dbh"; > $result = @mysql_query($sql, $dbh) or die ("Could not execute query. >Please try again later."); >Its not deleting the records based on a hidden field in a form named >$user_id >Any help would be great! >Jas > > > >-- >PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) >To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php ________________________________________________________ Juan Pablo Aqueveque <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Ingeniero de Sistemas Departamento de Redes y Comunicaciones http://www.drc.uct.cl Universidad Católica de Temuco.
