Hi, Sorry about this but I'm having severe difficulty finding information on this. What is the correct syntax for deleting from a database in perl and mysql:

The answer is in the MySQL reference manual at http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/DELETE.html

I'm surprised you're having difficulty finding it.

Hi, Anyone know is it possible to get a string from a drop-down menu in a form and pass it from one perl script to another.

The answer is quoting! You asked another question that involved quoting yesterday. You need to read up and learn it. Apart from the MySQL manual, the DBI docs are at http://search.cpan.org/~timb/DBI-1.38/DBI.pm

Those two docs should answer most questions between them.

BTW, posting questions to two lists simultaneously is generally not appreciated.

HTH, Dave
