Adding data to the database when it should be deleting

[OriginalSunny]

Hi,
I am using the following .inc file:

[i]$sql = "DELETE FROM Orders where ID = '$ID'";
mysql_query($sql);[/i]

and the following code in my .php file

[i]<tr><td align="right"><b>ID</b></td>
<td><input type="text" name="ID"
value="<?php echo @$ID ?>"
size="10" maxlength="10"></td></tr>

<tr><td align="center" colspan="2">
<input type="submit"
value="Remove"></td></tr>[/i]

and instead of removing the row from the database, a new row is added to the database only storing the ID. Does anyone know why this is happening?? It seems strange.

It shouldnt make a difference but just thought i would mention ID is a primary key and is auto incremented.
