Could you provide the HTML from the initial setup (the one that was broken)?
I'm curious about what was output to the browser (since that's what dictates
where the form is sent anyway)

Thanks

Donald,

Thanks for the recommendation, I tried it and it did not work.  I even
looked up one level to the function that calls this function and I
couldn't
trace back and incorrect code.  I moved the code out of the function and
put
it in its own php file:

<?php

                echo "<form action='./edit.php' method='post'>\n";
                echo "<input type='hidden' name='id'
value='".$row['id']."'>\n";
                echo "<input type='hidden' name='database'
value='candidate'>\n";
                echo "<input type='submit' name='edit' value='Edit'>\n";
                echo "<form>\n";

?>

Results: It pointed to edit.php.  This is weird and mind blowing as well.

try turning
        echo "<form action='./edit.php' method='post'>\n";
into
        echo "<form action='/edit.php' method='post'>\n";

> Now that code would create a button at the end of the table row that
should call the php file "edit.php" however when I go to the webpage the
button links to "names.php" which is the name of the file that contains
this
code.  I do have references to $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] in the code in other
places to call the script itself if certain buttons are pressed but I
don't
see how that could have interfered.  It is blowing my mind because I
thought
it would be a simple thing to fix but I can't figure it out.  I even moved
the form echo statements to a test file on the server and it does not do
this at all.
