Urgent Help

Hello,

can anyone advise as to how can I delete a message on an html page using checkboxes.

Scenerio is that I want my homepage to display a message saying that user A has sent me a new message when ever user A send a new message.

as you can see in this code

echo"
<table width='100%' border='0'>
<tr>

<td width='25%'><div align='left'>

      <input type='checkbox' name='checkbox' value='checkbox'>
    </form>

    <a href=\"#\"><img src='images\J.JPG' width='40' height='47' border='0' onclick = \"clicked($sender);\" ></a></div></td>
        <td width='64%'><div align='left'>".$s." has sent you a new message. </td>
        <td width='19%'><div align='left'>".$d."</td>
        </tr>
        </table>";

where $s is the name of the sender and $d is date.

I want to delete these messages saying user A has sent you a new message by clicking a checkbox and then pressing a delete button.

Just have the target action of the form be a page that is looking for a message id to be passed, and then run a delete query based on that passed id.

if( !empty($POST['message_id']) ) mysql_query("DELETE FROM table WHERE col_name=" . $POST['message_id']);

Have the value of the checkbox be the message's ID. If you want to process more than one message at a time, check this out:
