How do you delete a script?

Help with php delete script!!!!?

• I am trying to delete multiple records on a forum with check boxes, but the code is not working. It is saying it has successfully been deleted but it doesn't delete the posts. Please help, 10 points for the best answer. $check="SELECT * FROM posts WHERE category_id='".$cid."' AND ID= '".$tid."'"; $result= mysql_query($check) or die(mysql_error()); $rows= mysql_fetch_assoc($result); $post_id=$rows['ID']; <input name='checkbox[]' type='checkbox' value='$post_id' /> if(isset($_POST['delete'])){ $checkbox=$_POST['checkbox']; $count_ids = count($_POST['checkbox']); //counting how many checkboxes have been selected. for($i=0;$i<$count_ids;$i++){ $del_id=$checkbox[$i]; $sqldelete = "DELETE from posts WHERE ID = $del_id"; $res4= mysql_query($sqldelete); echo"You have succsesfully deleted the selected post"; } ID is the ID of the post that someone has done.

• Answer:

  You need to provide you're self some feed back I would add a conditional statement if($res4) { echo "You have successfully deleted the selected post"; } else { echo "failed"; // you can then start using mysql_error if you're on a development site } Just as a side note ALWAYS ESCAPE your input - regardless where it came from
