Also, I forgot to mention... another little snippet I like to use for something like this is this meta tag:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Page-Enter" Content="blendtrans(duration=.1)"> It makes the pages fade into each other, and for two pages that are very similar (like your example) it doesn't look like there's any reload at all. It has a pretty cool effect when you up the "duration" and use it for totally different pages too... it's just really fun to play with. Just stick it into the header of your page.

It's fairly simple: at the top of your script, have a block of code similar to the following, and have the link point to -- $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?rm_id=".$id_to_be_deleted -- I'll leave out all but the essential elements. <code> <?php if (isset($_GET['rm_id'])) { $query = "REMOVE FROM whatever WHERE id = ".$_GET['rm_id']." LIMIT 1"; mysql_query($query); } ?> </code> Will Collins -----Original Message----- From: Robert Cummings [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 14, 2004 8:49 PM To: Ryan A Cc: PHP-General Subject: Re: [PHP] How to duplicate this functionality?

What is it? Javascript..? DHTML? what? In linux under Netscape 7 and Opera 7.2 it reloaded the page :/ That said looking at the URL when the mouse is over the link: http://www.blocket.se/new?caller=ogl_s&l=0&rm_id=2595475&city=0 The rm_id is being set as a GET variable with an appropriate ID to remove the entry. So when the page reloads it first deletes the entry. This is standard functionality in many websites.
