delete statement problem

I am using a simple delete statement in my php script (below)

$q = "DELETE FROM commenttype WHERE TypeID=".$_POST['selectcat'];

the problem is it doesnt delete the whole row it only deletes the text in
one of the fields of the row. Has anyone else had a similar problem?
It works when I run the sql directly from a program such as mysqlphp
