You forgot to put single quotes around the string that begins '<a href= ... ' in the line beginning:I am trying to insert information into the database, have it automatically place an ID Number, then update that particular record and replace the word "delete" with the link.
The "mysql_insert_id()" does seem to be working. It does put in an id number of "0" However, the code in general gives me an error everytime. It says that it is near 'delete = <a href...'
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks!
