Link to database file

[chico1st]

Okay ive never done this before but i need to make a link to a page which will bring up a database entry.

lets say that i know the ID of the entry as $id
does it just go?

<A HREF=magicpage.php?id=$id>go here</a>

which leads to magicpage.php
where some of the code would be

$id    = $_GET['id'];
$query = "SELECT name, type, size, content FROM magicdatabase WHERE ID = '$id'";

sorry ive never dealt with this, and im away from MY computer so i cant test it.
After this i should be out of your hair, and I cant tell you how thankful I am for all your help, you are all awesome people! :D

THANKS for any help you can offer

Sounds like you're got both ends figured out.. that's pretty much all there is to it.
