jazzman1 Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Well, what is the file's name of that script?Do you know that the action of your html form goes to the file, called - "del_updprod.php"? If that file's name is different nothing from here will be executed.

Barand Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 I don't see a form field called 'prod_id' so there will be no $_POST['prod_id'] Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/280574-status-not-changing-in-database-table/#findComment-1442449 Share on other sites More sharing options...
