I have been trying to do this for hours now, and I can't quite get my head round it. I have a table called "requests" that has the columns "deletekey" and "deleted". "deletekey" is a random unique number (data-type text), and "deleted" is by default set to 0 (data-type boolean), and when the user inputs the deletekey, it changes "deleted" to 1. But I can't get it to work. Here is the code I have, and I have no idea what I'm doing wrong:
$key = $_GET["delkey"];
$link = mysqli_connect("localhost","username","password","dbname");
$query = 'UPDATE requests SET deleted = True WHERE deletekey = "$key"';
$result = $link->query($query);
