mysqli删除仅在第二个链接点击时工作

Question

I have a table with all the articles looped out from the database along with a DELETE link that sends the ID of the post to the handler for deletion, but I have to click twice for it to delete.

Here's the deletion code in the handler:

if($_GET['deleteArticleId']){

    // Delete article
    $crudObject = new CrudClass();

    $row_id = $_GET['deleteArticleId'];

    $table_name = "28uge_cms_newsarticles";

    $crudObject->delete($table_name, $row_id);



    // Delete article links to categories
    $crudObject = new CrudClass();

    $sql = "DELETE FROM 28uge_cms_newsarticles_categories WHERE newsarticles_id = {$_GET['deleteArticleId']}";

    $crudObject->sendQueryToDatabase($sql);



    // Delete article links to images
    $crudObject = new CrudClass();

    $sql = "DELETE FROM 28uge_cms_newsarticles_images WHERE newsarticles_id = {$_GET['deleteArticleId']}";

    $crudObject->sendQueryToDatabase($sql);



    header('location: ../admin/newsview.php');
    exit;

}

"// Delete article links to categories" and "// Delete article links to images" works the first time around, but the "// Delete article" only works when the delete link has been pressed twice.

Here's the delete function code:

public function delete($table_name, $row_id){

    // Putting together the SQL string.
    $sql = "DELETE FROM $table_name WHERE id = $row_id";

    // Sending the SQL string off to the database.
    $this->dbConn -> query($sql);

}

I can't figure out what is causing this bug, so help would be greatly appreciated!
