what's wrong?

[Pi_Mastuh]

I'm using

mysql_query("DELETE FROM `Mail` WHERE `msgID` = '$msgID'");

but it's not deleting. The variable works, I'm echoing it at the top of the page, but for some reason it won't delete. When I actualy put

DELETE FROM `Mail` WHERE `msgID` = '12'

into the database it works just fine. Any ideas as to what's wrong?

try
[code]
mysql_query("DELETE FROM `Mail` WHERE `msgID` = '$msgID'") or die(mysql_error());
[/code]
