It's helpful to print mysql_error() when you have an error, so you
get a message more specific than "Invalid DELETE query". In this
case, you're trying to delete from a database called '$sql_id' --
that is, a dollar sign followed by 'sql_id'. Presumably that's not
your actual database name. Remove the single quotes (so that you're
using the *value* of $sql_id) and try again.
