select check boxes and delete selected from database

[mancroft]

Anyone know of a php/mysql script tutorial/demo for "select check boxes and delete selected from database"?

I would simply pass the id of the record to be deleted as the value of the checkbox...then its simply a matter of parsing the data into a comma separated string and runngin the query....

$sql="delete from tableName where ID in ($id_list)";

Follow basitenk's advice.
Make the input elements (checkboxes) an array <input name="delete_id[]" value="..., then you can just implode it into an id_list.
