Example for database editing needed

sidprice 08 Mar, 2015
I have my data input form working nicely and now I need a form to edit the database table entries. I need to be able to edit the fields and save the updated data and also the option to delete the displayed record. I am not sure where to start with this, I think the form needs a means to search the database and then edit a selected record. Is there a "how to" or example I could use as a reference.

Apologies, this may be posted in the wrong section. Admin is it possible to move it or should I repost?
Many thanks,

Hi Sid,

If you are doing this as Site Admin then the easiest way may be to use PHPMyAdmin or the MijoSQL or AceSQL Joomla! components and edit/delete the records directly.

If you want to do it through a form then please see this FAQ

Hi Gigi,

The only difference I can see is that you use the DB Read action in CFv5.
