[bazubwabo]

hi everybody,
there is someone who can help me to find out how to create a delete button .Indeed,I have then 2 buttons, one for insert(works well),second one is therefore for to delete.
You can check out below the code:[php]
?>
<?php

if(isset($_POST['Delete'])){
$query="DELETE FROM SCANNER WHERE SCANNER.scanNo ='".$scanNo."'" ;
$result=mysql_q uery($query);
}
?>
<form action="procesc anin.php" method="get" name="scanin_fo rm">
<div align="center">
<table>
<tr><td> scannerNummer:</td>
<td> <input name="scanNo" type="text" ></td><td>&nbsp;</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>Type: </td>
<td> <input name="type_id" type="text" ></td><td>&nbsp;</td>

</tr>
<tr><td>&nbsp ;</td><td><input name="Insert" type="submit" value="Insert" ></td>
<td>&nbsp;</td><td><input name="Delete" type="submit" value="Delete"> </td>
<td>&nbsp;</td><td><input type="hidden" name="For_to_de lete" value="<?php echo $_REQUEST["scanNo"];?>"> </td>

</tr>
</table>
</div>
</form>[/php]
At the end when i click on delete,it acts as insert button.

Post the rest of your code. Also, you may want to include a hidden field called "function" and use javascript to write "insert" or "delete" in the value that way you can test just the one field. Getting the value of your submit buttons may be tricky.
