Donald,

Thanks for the recommendation, I tried it and it did not work.  I even
looked up one level to the function that calls this function and I couldn't
trace back and incorrect code.  I moved the code out of the function and put
it in its own php file:

<?php

		echo "<form action='./edit.php' method='post'>\n";
		echo "<input type='hidden' name='id'
value='".$row['id']."'>\n";
		echo "<input type='hidden' name='database'
value='candidate'>\n";
		echo "<input type='submit' name='edit' value='Edit'>\n";
		echo "<form>\n";
		
?>

Results: It pointed to edit.php.  This is weird and mind blowing as well.

try turning
	echo "<form action='./edit.php' method='post'>\n";
into
	echo "<form action='/edit.php' method='post'>\n";

> Now that code would create a button at the end of the table row that
should call the php file "edit.php" however when I go to the webpage the
button links to "names.php" which is the name of the file that contains this
code.  I do have references to $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] in the code in other
places to call the script itself if certain buttons are pressed but I don't
see how that could have interfered.  It is blowing my mind because I thought
it would be a simple thing to fix but I can't figure it out.  I even moved
the form echo statements to a test file on the server and it does not do
this at all.
