deleting items from a list

[bcamp1973]

When i click one of the delete buttons, the form submits, but nothing happens. I'm pretty sure i'm doing something stupid with the form buttons, but I've been staring at it too long...any takers?

 

The html...

<form id="listAll" action="?pg=addressbook&" method="post">
<ul>
<li><button type="submit" name="delete" value="3">DELETE</button><a href="?pg=addressbook&id=3">Last Name, First Name</a></li>
<li><button type="submit" name="delete" value="2">DELETE</button><a href="?pg=addressbook&id=2">Smith, John</a></li>
<li><button type="submit" name="delete" value="1">DELETE</button><a href="?pg=addressbook&id=1">Potter, Harry</a></li>
</ul>
</form>

 

The PHP...

if($_POST['delete']) {

mysql_query("DELETE FROM addresses WHERE id=".$_POST['delete']) or die(mysql_error());
}

grr...ok, i solved it.  the code above should actually work..i had a formatting issue with the query that i "fixed" when i simplified it for the example above.
