Edit button or link in a table

Recommended Posts

I am doing a simple project right now that puts patient records in a database and displays it using HTML tables. I want to know how to have an edit button or link on the last column of the row. When the user clicks that button or link, it goes to another page wherein he/she can directly edit the information from that row.

 

Thanks!

<a href="edit.php?id=contentid">Edit Entry</a>

 

Where contentid is fetched from the database and is an identifying field for that entry. Then just use $_GET['id'] on the edit.php to get the id that needs to be populated in the edit form.
