Hi Guys,
Help me solve this...
First I fetch values from DB and shows it in a table with check boxes. Once clicking OK button, it shows selected check box values. User modify any values and click edit, it should update the DB. I don't know where to fix the 'update query'. I tried in foreach loop. Can anyone help me to solve this. Or any other easy method to do this. Because I feel that 2 times fetching from DB is unnecessary. Here is my coke. Table contains 2 fields, name & age.

<?php
    $dbcon = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "");
    if(!$dbcon)
        {
            die('Couldnot connect:'. mysql_error());
        }
    else
        { echo "Connected successfully"; }
