Hi All,
I have struggled through this far with help from many of you so thanks. I am
stuck again. I am really new to this so don't be harsh :-)
There are a few problems. You can run the script here
http://www.pbrown.com/research/test1.php to see the formatting issues
Formatting Issues
1) Why do I get the extra '(' before the '(delete) link
2) Why does the 4th (and I think it is always the last rather than being
just the 4th) record always show below the Add Record link?
Editing Problem
1) When I actually select to delete a record it doesn't, I think it is
related to an 'id' issue but can't see where
2) When I click a link to edit it, it doesn't populate the form below...Why?
I know I am asking a lot. Thanks for any help indeed. If you are asking me
to put any code in to test please help me by being specific
Cheers
Paul
