Multiple submit forms inside a mysql array page

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 by admin

Hi all,

Im having trouble to get the beneath script to work the thing i can't seem to get workin is the following.

The page requests the data from a mysql table using mysql array so there are mutliple row's every row has 3 data
colloms 1 id (auto increment) 2 Module name 3 status. after every row the is a submit button so you can submit data from that row (basilcy a on and off button) when i have more than 1 row it doesnt work.
With 1 row it works but have to press the submitt buton twice.

Any help will be appreciated

Regards Djunity
