Basic PHP System: View/Edit/Delete/Add Records
It's a basic system that allows you to:

-- view existing records
-- edit existing records
-- delete existing records
-- add new records
DATABASE:
-- You'll need to create a database (I named mine 'records' but it can be changed) using PHPMyAdmin
--
-- Table structure for table `students`
--
CREATE TABLE `students` (
‘id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
‘student_number’ int(10) NOT NULL,
‘firstname’ varchar(32) NOT NULL,
‘lastname’ varchar(32) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=5 ;
--
-- Dumping data for table `students`
--
INSERT INTO `students` VALUES(1, 'Bob', 'Baker');

INSERT INTO `students ` VALUES(2, 'Tim', 'Thomas');
INSERT INTO `students ` VALUES(3, 'Rachel', 'Roberts');
INSERT INTO `students ` VALUES(4, 'Sam', 'Smith');
