    <p>you can do it both way... here the key concept is having a unique field like id in the database for eg you have id,name,username and password field in database table so look at both the ways below</p> <p><strong>1. using hyperlink</strong></p> <pre><code>&lt;?php mysql_connect("fostname","username","password"); mysql_select_db("database_name"); $q = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tbl_name"); if(mysql_num_rows($q)&gt;0) { echo"&lt;table&gt;"; echo "&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;name&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;action&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; while($name = mysql_fetch_assoc($q)) { ?&gt; &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;?php echo $name['name'];?&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;a href="delete.php?id=&lt;?php echo $name['id'];?&gt;"&gt;Delete&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; &lt;?php } echo "&lt;/table&gt;"; } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>this is what you do in listing page.... now look at delete.php which needs to be on the path as defined in hyperlink</p> <p>delete.php</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php mysql_connect("fostname","username","password"); mysql_select_db("database_name"); $id = $_GET['id']; $q = mysql_query("delete from tbl_name where id = '$id'"); header("Location: list.php"); ?&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>2. Using form</strong></p> <pre><code>&lt;?php mysql_connect("fostname","username","password"); mysql_select_db("database_name"); $q = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tbl_name"); if(mysql_num_rows($q)&gt;0) { echo"&lt;table&gt;"; echo "&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;name&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;action&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; while($name = mysql_fetch_assoc($q)) { ?&gt; &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;?php echo $name['name'];?&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;form action='delete.php' method='post'&gt; &lt;input type='hidden' value='&lt;?php echo $name["id"];?&gt;'&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; &lt;?php } echo "&lt;/table&gt;"; } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>delete.php</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php mysql_connect("fostname","username","password"); mysql_select_db("database_name"); $id = $_POSTs['id']; $q = mysql_query("delete from tbl_name where id = '$id'"); header("Location: list.php"); ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>(note: list.php is the page where you list all the info)</p>

    1. COThanks for putting in the work and confirming that it's ok to create a form for each entry. And thank you VERY much for showing exactly which form elements to use. I'll follow your example, but will submit it to the same page. Just out of curiosity, in your example, the delete.php file doesn't have a way to send the "Success" message back to the list.php page. How would you do that? Session variable?

    2. COBut if you are submitting in the same page dont forget to use if(isset($_POST['submit'])){/*form validation codes*/} and perform this on the top of the page.... otherwise you will get error.... for sending success message you can use this, header("Locattion: list.php?msg=success"); instead of last line of delete.php and then in the top of the page of list.php use if(isset($_GET['success'])){echo "success message";}..... thats it

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
