DataAssist not deleting the correct record from a repeating region

Hi Jason,

I gave the button code another go but yet again its doing the same thing, deleting the last record in a list rather than the one selected. I followed your instructions by adding the following code

<input name="deleteID" type="hidden" id="deleteID" value="<?php echo $row_Recordsetfindallprodid['purchaseid']; ?>">
<input name="deleteproduct" type="submit" class="custom_button_red" id="deleteproduct" value="-" onClick="document.getElementById('deleteID').value=<?php echo $row_Recordsetfindallprodid['purchaseid']; ?>">

then amending the server behavior to point at the deleteID hiden element as shown below

<?php echo((isset($_POST["deleteID"]))?$_POST["deleteID"]:"") ?>

As I say I have tried numerous other attempts, but to no avail. It will not select the correct record id for deletion. I have tried it with hidden elements and text fields. I'm beginning to think it may be down to the MySQL code that is attached to the repeat region.

I did try something I created a temporary field and pointed it at the purchase recordid, then i created a simple link 'testlink' and pointed that at the same page and the temporary field. similar to the following.

page_4.php?tmp=<?php echo((isset($_POST["tmp"]))?$_POST["tmp"]:"") ?>

When hovering the mouse over the link, their is no value visible.

page_4.php?tmp=

So if no value is being sent to the server, I guess the delete behavior is just deleting the last record in the database table. I have had issues with the isset($_POST function before, so could that be the culprit, it is posting even though the variable is empty.

I'm not sure Jason, I'm no php developer at all

Thanks again

John
