Hope some one can help me out here, i guess am not calling my functions right.
Am trying to retrieve some data from my database and have a delete link attached to each items being retrieved, so that when ever i click on delete, it will delete that particular item which have the delete function.

My Code to retrieve items from database are as follows.

<?php
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
mysql_select_db("uloaku", $con);
$count = 1;
$y = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM transaction");
if(mysql_num_rows($y) != 0){

echo "<table bgcolor=\"white\" width=\"1000\" bordercolor=\"grey\" border=\"5\" >";
echo "<tr>
<td align=\"center\">No</td>
<td align=\"center\">Date</td>
<td align=\"center\">Current Balance</td>
<td align=\"center\">Avaliable Balance</td>
<td align=\"center\">Account Status</td>
<td align=\"center\">Delete Account</td>

</tr>";

while ($z = mysql_fetch_array($y, MYSQL_BOTH)){
        echo "<tr>
        <td align=\"center\">".$count++."</td>
        <td align=\"center\">".$z[1]."</td>
        <td align=\"center\">".$z[2]."</td>
        <td align=\"center\">".$z[3]."</td>
        <td align=\"left\" width=\"300\">".$z[4]."</td>
        <td><a href=\"delete.php\">delete</a></td>
        </tr>";
    }
    echo "</table>";
    }
?>

And my code to delete

<?php
session_start();
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
mysql_select_db("uloaku", $con);
$id = $_GET['id'];
$sql = mysql_query("DELETE FROM transaction WHERE id='$id' LIMIT 1") or die   (mysql_error());
header("Location: vacct.php");
?>

I know am missing out the logic here and hope somebody can direct me or show me the easy way out. at the moment i can successfully retrieve my items from the data base my only problem is to be able to apply the delete function each time the delete button is tapped.

    Use the below code.I have added validation and encryption

    <?php
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
mysql_select_db("uloaku", $con);
$count = 1;
$y = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM transaction");
if(mysql_num_rows($y) != 0){

echo "<table bgcolor=\"white\" width=\"1000\" bordercolor=\"grey\" border=\"5\" >";
echo "<tr>
<td align=\"center\">No</td>
<td align=\"center\">Date</td>
<td align=\"center\">Current Balance</td>
<td align=\"center\">Avaliable Balance</td>
<td align=\"center\">Account Status</td>
<td align=\"center\">Delete Account</td>

</tr>";

while ($z = mysql_fetch_array($y, MYSQL_BOTH)){
        echo "<tr>
        <td align=\"center\">".$count++."</td>
        <td align=\"center\">".$z[1]."</td>
        <td align=\"center\">".$z[2]."</td>
        <td align=\"center\">".$z[3]."</td>
        <td align=\"left\" width=\"300\">".$z[4]."</td>
        <td><a href=\"delete.php?id=".base64_encode($z[0])."\">delete</a></td>
        </tr>";
    }
    echo "</table>";
    }
?>

code to delete

<?php
session_start();
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
mysql_select_db("uloaku", $con);
$id = base64_decode($_GET['id']);
if(!empty($id)){
$sql = mysql_query("DELETE FROM transaction WHERE id='$id' LIMIT 1") or die   (mysql_error());
}
header("Location: vacct.php");
?>
