    <p>I'm trying to delete a row from my MS access database using checkboxes in my HTML/JSP file. The file currently outputs the database to the UI, after the checkbox is ticked and delete is pressed, a prompt pops ups. But I still CAN'T delete the row from my database. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks. </p> <p>see code below:</p> <pre><code>&lt;%@ page import="java.io.*,java.util.*,java.sql.*"%&gt; &lt;%@ page import="javax.servlet.http.*,javax.servlet.*" %&gt; &lt;%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c"%&gt; &lt;%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/sql" prefix="sql"%&gt; &lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;title&gt;DELETE Operation&lt;/title&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; function deleteEmployee(rowid){ input_box = confirm("Are you sure you want to delete this Record?"); if (input_box == true) { // Output when OK is clicked $('#' + rowid).remove(); alert('Record Deleted'); } else { // Output when Cancel is clicked return false; } } &lt;/script&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;sql:setDataSource var = "bookdB" scope = "session" driver = "sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver" url = "jdbc:odbc:bookdB" /&gt; &lt;sql:query dataSource="${bookdB}" var="result"&gt; SELECT * from Employees; &lt;/sql:query&gt; &lt;table border="1" width="100%"&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;th&gt;&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;Emp ID&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;First Name&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;Last Name&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;Age&lt;/th&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;c:forEach var="row" items="${result.rows}"&gt; &lt;form method="post" action="reserve.jsp"&gt; &lt;tr id="${row.id}"&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;input type = "checkbox" value="${row.id}" name="empIds"&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;c:out value="${row.id}"/&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;c:out value="${row.first}"/&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;c:out value="${row.last}"/&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;c:out value="${row.age}"/&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;/c:forEach&gt; &lt;input type="button" value="delete" onclick="deleteEmployee('${row.id}');" /&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre>

Querying!

 
Guidance
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.
