when i click the submit button on the ReadID.htm, the displayform.php should display the information about the "ID" that i want to update..but it doesnt work..and i've also got a prob to update my data..
can u guys solve my prob..im just a beginner in php..plz help me..=(

On line 43 of displayform you do $id = $_GET['id']; yet the DocID (the name of the input field in the first form) gets POST'ed by the form. So it should read: $id = $_POST['DocID'];

yes pritaeas is right you have to put $id = $_POST, in place on $id=$_GET,

not sure what is this id $_GET,

also try to run the query in phpmyadmin so that you conform that your query is working or not

thanx!!=)its really work!
