Cant get this to work. Everything works fine but not the navigation part for ?edit=id-goes-here.
I've just learned some basic php but i need the edit function -.-
I changed the echo's instead of mysql query's to text to display what i've gotten.

That part should always show provided $_GET['edit'] is not set or has a string length > 0 (so a character count of 1 would work, not a literal integer value). Do you mean for it to show when $_GET['edit'] is set?
