You probably have an error that stops the page executing.

Turn on error reporting in your php.ini file.

OR you don't have any query results to loop thru.

Here's a cleaned up version of your current code.

<?php
if(isset($_GET['update']))
{
    $the_mentor_id = $_GET['update'];
    $query = "SELECT mentor_id, field2, field3, field4,..... FROM mentor 
            WHERE mentor_id = '$the_mentor_id' ";
    $qresults = mysqli_query($db, $query);
    while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($qresults)) 
    {
        $mentor_id  = $row['mentor_id'];
        echo "<h1>i am h1</h1>";
    }
}
include 'includes/footer.php';

Question - Does the "footer.php" actually contain php code or is it the footer of your html page?   Don't name it .php if it is just html code

You need to start using prepared queries.  Check out the manual.  And if you are really new, read the PDO stuff instead of the MySQLI stuff.  It's easier and better for you.

@ginerjm Thanks for your reply, footer.php contains jquery files

So - Not PHP?
