Hi Tony,
Get the list of values that are to be deleted in an array and pass the array to a php code where it would selectively retrieve the values that match the array content.
Say if ur database has two fields
1. an auto increment field
2. a name field.
At the time of display display the name field and if it is checked then add the hidden value associated with that particular name to an array.If the 2nd name is checked make an entry in the array as 2.Let the array be a hidden value passed.
So after submission move through the database searching for records whose auto-increment field value matches the array value.
Hope this may solve ur problem.
