Adding delete feature to my forum

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hello I am currently trying to add a delete feature to my forum. I believe I have everything built right but I am having some problems when debugging. I do not have PHP Designer 2008 and I am using eclipse as my IDE so it may be something simple. Please give me some help if you can. Thanks! I have these two source files:

Code: <?php

if(!$_SESSION['uid']){
header("Location: index.php");
}

$actz = $_GET['act2'];
$actzz = array('reply','topic','admin','delete');

if($actz){
$admin = isa($_SESSION['uid']);

if($actz == 'admin'){
if($admin){
//
}else {
echo "You are not an administrator, so you cannot view this page!";
}
}


if($actz == 'reply'){
$id = mss($_GET['id']);
if($id){
$sql = "SELECT * FROM `alabama_forum_replies` WHERE `id`='".$id."'";
$res = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
if(mysql_num_rows($res) == 0){
echo "This topic doesn't exist, so therefore you cannot edit it!";
}else {
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res);
$user_id = $row['uid'];

if($user_id == $_SESSION['uid'] || $admin == 1){
if(!$_POST['submit']){
echo "<form method="post" action="index.php?act=mod&act2=reply&id=".$id."">n";
echo "<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="3" cellpadding="3">n";
echo "<tr><td class="forum_header" align="center"><textarea style="width:90%;height:200px" name="reply">".htmlentities($row['message'])."</textarea></td></tr>n";
echo "<tr><td class="forum_header" align="center"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit Edited Comment"></td></tr>n";
echo "</table></form>n";
}else {
$reply = mss($_POST['reply']);
if($reply){
$r = range(10,10000);
if(in_array(strlen($reply),$r)){
$sql2 = "UPDATE `alabama_forum_replies` SET `message`='".$reply."', `edit_time`='".time()."' WHERE `id`='".$id."'";
$res2 = mysql_query($sql2) or die(mysql_error());
header("Location: index.php?act=topic&id=".$row['tid']."");
}else {
echo "Your reply must be between 10 and 10,000 characters in length!n";
}
}
}
}else {
echo "This is not your reply to edit!";
}
}
}
}

if ($actz == 'deletereply'){
$id = mss($_GET['id']);
if($id){
$sql = "DELETE * FROM `alabama_forum_replies` WHERE `id`='".$id."'";
$res = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
