Hi there

I've got a couple of queries and I might not be using the correct languages here, but I wondered if you could help with the following.

I have a HTML form that users fill in, the values from these boxes then get sent to PHP variables, which are then stored in a mysql database.

Other users then log in, and they can view the database values pinned back into the html form for printing.

I am looking to add a page to allow the editing of these records, and want to know if it is possible to have something like

Code:

 <input name="by" type="text" id="by" value='<? echo $by ?>' size="25">


so current values from the database appear in the text box which can be edited so when submit is pressed at the bottom of the page, I can again pass them to php variables and update the database.

Many thanks in advance for your help

Yrs

Alex
