Question

After the user logs out, it basically deletes the all the data in their table that includes their id code in any of the rows.

$idcode = $_SESSION['idcode'];
$idicao = $_SESSION['idicao'];

if(isset($_POST['logout'])) {

$sql = "DELETE FROM $idicao WHERE idcode=".$idcode."";

mysql_query($sql);

}


session_unset();
session_destroy();

mysql_close($dbid);

header("Location: login.php");

?>

The variables are echoed on the page correctly, and session_start is at the top. The only problem is that the records from the tables are not being deleted.

Answer 1

You are saying that the sql-variable outputs: DELETE FROM Test WHERE idcode=test

Test should be in single quotes like this:

$sql = "DELETE FROM ".$idicao." WHERE idcode='".$idcode."'";
