Use data from mysql in HTML row - php

Question

I have a web page where I am pulling data from a mysql database and I want to be able to check a checkbox and change information within the table. The way I am displaying the information is as follows:
<?php
$get_tickets = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM assignment
JOIN technician
ON assignment.TechID = technician.TechID
JOIN employee
ON assignment.EID = employee.EID
JOIN ticket
ON assignment.TickID = ticket.TickID
WHERE assignment.TechID = '$current_id'");
echo "<table border='1' width=\"100%\" style=\"margin: 0px;\">";
echo "<tr><td>Ticket Number</td>";
echo "<td>First Name</td>";
echo "<td>Last Name</td>";
echo "<td>Phone</td>";
echo "<td>Device</td>";
echo "<td>Location</td>";
echo "<td>Problem</td>";
echo "<td>Time Stamp</td>";
echo "<td>Completed</td>";
echo '<td><form><input type="checkbox"/></form></td></tr>';
while($row2 = mysql_fetch_array($get_tickets))
{
$count = 1;
$checkbox = "checkbox" . $count;
echo "<tr><td>";
echo $row2["TickID"];
echo "</td><td>";
echo $row2["fname"];
echo "</td><td>";
echo $row2["lname"];
echo "</td><td>";
echo $row2["phone"];
echo "</td><td>";
echo $row2["device"];
echo "</td><td>";
echo $row2["location"];
echo "</td><td>";
echo $row2["problem"];
echo "</td><td>";
echo $row2["time_date"];
echo "</td><td>";
echo $row2["completed"];
echo "</td><td>";
echo '<form><input type="checkbox" name=' . $row2["TickID"] . '></form>';
echo "</td></tr>";
}
?>
There may be better ways to ouput the information, but I just want to be able to click the checkbox and take the data from the row associated with the checkbox and change part of it. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

try to change this:
echo '<form><input type="checkbox" name=' . $row2["TickID"] . '></form>';
for this:
echo ''.$row2["fname"].'';
on the file process.php you will get the variable like this
<?php
echo $_GET['id'];
?>
