Hi all I have this line in my php code
$insert = "DELETE FROM allocation_table WHERE job = '$jobnumber' " ;
Mysql_query ($insert) ;
The problem is it will remove all the values from the the one line in my table but not the entry itself. as you can see in the picture if I delete where job = 315 , it does not delete the line but does delete all the entries
Yet in this code that preceeds it (a different table) . it works fine and the whole line is removed
$insert = "DELETE FROM event WHERE jobnumber = '$jobnumber' " ;
mysql_query ($insert) ;enter code here
can anyone offer some advice please ??
