You were looping through with a counter and using the loopnumber as your id, this will only work if you are absolutely positive that your ids are sequential, looks like you are using register globals I think. I've never used them so I actually find your code confusing.

do you get any error messages?

also have you tried the raw SQL inside of phpmyadmin?
