delete mysql row by retrieving id PHP foreach - php

Question

I've created a foreach statement that echos out some stuff about all users registered, how do I make a button that deletes that user from the row? I've tried this:
$query = "
SELECT id
, name
, bname
, email
, address
, agent
, status
, notes
FROM prospects
";
try {
$stmt = $db->prepare($query);
$stmt ->execute();
}
catch(PDOException $ex) {
die("Failed to run query. Tell the website owner!");
}
$rows = $stmt->fetchAll();
foreach($rows as $row) {
echo "<tbody>
<th>".$row['name']."</th>";
echo "BLAH BLAH BLAH!";
echo "<form method='post'><th><button type='submit' name='delete' class='btn btn-white btn-round btn-just-icon'>
<i class='material-icons'>remove_circle_outline</i>
<div class='ripple-container'></div>
</button></th></tbody></form>";
} $id = $db->prepare("SELECT id FROM example");
$id->execute();
$result = $id->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
if(isset($_POST['delete'])) {
try {
$sql = "DELETE FROM example WHERE id='".$result."'";
$db->exec($sql);
}
catch(PDOException $e) {
echo $sql . "<br />". $e->getMessage();
}
}
It returns this error:
Notice: Array to string conversion....
I know this is because I've grabbed the id and there is an array of ids that I've grabbed from the database? So how do I do delete a specific row when i click on the button?

Answer 1

You have to specify which element in array holds the id value.
Try:
$sql = "DELETE FROM example WHERE id='".$result['id']."'";
