So where does your error lies?

Member Avatar for Roriomphe

When i click delete nothing happens but when i delete an empty record it delete.Again i want to be able to edit the selected row.

Member Avatar for richieking

on line 31 where you have delete.php. you must add the data to be deleted.

<a href="delete.php?userID=$row['id']&name=$row['name']">delete</a>

The you get the values the run your delete query in the delete.php.
eg:

$userId=$_GET['userID']
$name=$_GET['userID']

## then connect to your sql db and run your delete query.
