I have this:
<form name="delete_keywords.php"
<table width="1020px" >
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Keyword</th>
<th>Select</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<div class="small_font">
<?php listing_list(); ?>
</div>
</tbody>
</table>
<input type = "submit" value = "Update Keywords">
</form>
My code to fill in the table:
function listing_list() {
global $session;
$list = "SELECT * FROM listing";
$list_result = mysql_query($list)
or die ("Could not execute query.");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($list_re
{
extract($row);
(is_float ($row["listing_id"]/2)) ? $coloredrow="odd" : $coloredrow="even";
echo "<tr class='$coloredrow'>\n
<td>$keyword_name</td>\n
<td><input type='checkbox' name='del' value='".$row['listing_id'
</tr>\n";
}
}
My delete_keywords.php is:
<?php
require_once("conf/db_conn
include("include/session.p
if (isset($_Post['submit']))
{
//Loop through each keyword with an enabled checkbox
foreach($count=0; $count < count($_POST['listing_id']
{
$listing_id = $_POST['listing_id'][$coun
$query = "DELETE FROM listing WHERE listing_id = '$listing_id'";
$result = mysql_query($query);
//Should have one affected row
if ((mysql_affected_rows() == 0) || mysql_affected_rows() == -1) {
echo "<p>There was a problem deleteing some of the selected items.</p>";
exit;
}
}
echo "<p>The selected items were successfully deleted.</p>";
}
?>
Now, when I run the code, no errors, when I check a checkbox it checks, when I hit update.. nothing happens...

That makes sense....
However.. I'm a little confused by your use of an I can't echo inside of an echo..
<td>$keyword_name</td>\n
<td><input name='checkbox[]' type='checkbox' value='"$row[i]['listing_i
</tr>\n";
Gives me an error...
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE, expecting ',' or ';'
Why are looping a delete? You only need (1) query, no loop needed, it wasteful!
<?php
// list_keywords.php
require_once 'conf/db_connection.php';
include 'include/session.php';
function listing_list ()
{
global $session;
$list = 'SELECT * FROM listing';
$list_result = mysql_query ( $list ) or die ( 'Could not execute query.' );
if mysql_num_rows ( $list_result ) > 0 )
{
while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array ( $list_result ) )
{
echo " <tr class='" . ( is_float ( $row['listing_id'] / 2 ) ? odd : even . "'>\n";
echo " <td>" . $keyword_name . "</td>\n";
echo " <td><input type='checkbox' name='item[]' value='" . $row['listing_id'] . "'></td>\n";
echo " </tr>\n";
}
}
else
{
echo 'no keywords to delete!';
}
}
?>

I think you 'll have to make array of checkboxes e.g.
<input name="checkbox[]" type="checkbox" value="<? echo $inboxmail[$i]['mailid'];?
and then you 'll take the values where you want to delete them and delete with query e.g.
if($_POST['checkbox'] != '')
{
$i = 0;
while($checkbox[$i])
{
$checkboxid = $checkbox[$i];
$dblink = new db($server,$dbname,$dbuser
$dblink->deleteFromDB("del
echo "<meta http-equiv='refresh' content='0;URL=inbox.php'>
$i++;
}
}
This is just to give an idea. BOL =)
