Yeah, you should have a single apostrophe around the $id. So it should
read:
mysql_query("DELETE FROM open_trades WHERE id='$id'");
That should do it.

Hello, I have a simple script to retrieve and then delete a selected

When I hit the button I get:
You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that
corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
