[RESOLVED] Deleting multiple records with implode

[2005]

My question is about deleting multiple records (selected checkboxes).

I use this:

mysql_query('DELETE FROM instant messages WHERE msg_id IN ('. implode(', ', $_POST['msg_id']).')');

It works OK, but it's important to check that users can delete only their own instant messages but not messages of other people.

So, I need something like this:

mysql_query('DELETE FROM instant messages WHERE uname='$username' and msg_id IN ('. implode(', ', $_POST['msg_id']).')');

It doesn't work - I am getting parse errors. Any ideas?
Thank you.

mysql_query("DELETE FROM instant messages WHERE uname='$username' and msg_id IN (". implode(', ', $_POST['msg_id']).")");

uname='$username' => uname='.$username.'

Might the above be your problem? If not please post your error message and your query

Thank you thorpe and jernhenrik for your replies.

I made changes to the query as suggested by thorpe and it works. It was a problem with quotes.
