This was a third party script which i was going through , now, somehow this script seemed incomplete, i want to make sure what are missing and what do i have to do to make it working.

 

this is the admin form to add the mailing list, although after going through the ml_admin_transact it just gives a blank page..?? Also I didn't find any switch related to the post made by the admin form.

<?php
require 'db.inc.php';

$db = mysql_connect(MYSQL_HOST, MYSQL_USER, MYSQL_PASSWORD) or
    die ('Unable to connect. Check your connection parameters.');

mysql_select_db(MYSQL_DB, $db) or die(mysql_error($db));
?>
<html>
 <head>
  <title>Mailing List Administration</title>
  <style type="text/css">
   td { vertical-align: top; }
  </style>
 </head>
 <body>
  <h1>Mailing List Administration</h1>
  <form method="post" action="ml_admin_transact.php">
   <p><label for="listname">Add Mailing List:</label><br />
    <input type="text" id="listname" name="listname" maxlength="100" />
    <input type="submit" name="action" value="Add New Mailing List" />
   </p>
<?php
$query = 'SELECT
        ml_id, listname
    FROM
        ml_lists
    ORDER BY
        listname ASC';
$result = mysql_query($query, $db) or die(mysql_error($db));

if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {
    echo '<p><label for="ml_id">Delete Mailing List:</label><br />';
    echo '<select name="ml_id" id="ml_id">';
    while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
        echo '<option value="' . $row['ml_id'] . '">' . $row['listname'] .
            '</option>';
    }
    echo '</select>';
    echo '<input type="submit" name="action" value="Delete ' . 
        'Mailing List" />';
    echo '</p>';
}
mysql_free_result($result);
?>
  </form>
  <p><a href="ml_quick_msg.php">Send a quick message to users.</a></p>
 </body>
</html>

and ml_admin_transact.php :-

okay got few things , first to add mailing lists and second to delete mailing list... 

<?php
require 'db.inc.php';
require 'class.SimpleMail.php';

$db = mysql_connect(MYSQL_HOST, MYSQL_USER, MYSQL_PASSWORD) or
    die ('Unable to connect. Check your connection parameters.');

mysql_select_db(MYSQL_DB, $db) or die(mysql_error($db));

$action = (isset($_REQUEST['action'])) ? $_REQUEST['action'] : '';

switch ($action) {
case 'Add New Mailing List':
   $listname = isset($_POST['listname']) ? $_POST['listname'] : '';
   if (!empty($listname)) {
   	$query = 'INSERT INTO ml_lists
   			(listname) 
   			 VALUES 
   			 	("' . mysql_real_escape_string($listname, $db) . '")';
   }
   mysql_query($query,$db) or die(mysql_error($db));

    break;

case 'Delete Mailing List':
	$ml_id = isset($_POST['ml_id']) ? $_POST['ml_id'] : '';
	if (ctype_digit($ml_id)) {
		$query = 'DELETE FROM ml_lists WHERE ml_id=' . $ml_id;
		mysql_query($query, $db) or die(mysql_error($db));
	}
    break;

}
?>
