I am having problems. I know javascript is client side and php is server side. What I am trying to do is delete a entry from the data base when I check the checkbox and press the delete button.

I don't know of a different way to do this. I was trying to figure out a way to maybe refresh the page and with refreshing then delete the entries from the data base using php. I am willing to do this a differnet way. But I'm a beginner at javascript and I can do what I need to with PHP. Thanks.

you have 2 options AJAX(the one you are most proberly going to end up using) or you set your delete button like a submit button that it will send you with the selected items to delete.php or what ever
