Wie kann ich mithilfe von Kontrollkästchen in PHP mehrere Zeilen aus einer MySQL-Datenbanktabelle löschen und welche häufigen Fehler sollte ich vermeiden?

<code class="php"><input name="checkbox[]" type="checkbox" value="<?php echo $row['link_id']; ?>"></code>

<code class="php">$result = mysqli_query($dbc, $sql);</code>

<code class="php"><?php
// Retrieve data from database and prepare HTML table
$dbc = mysqli_connect('localhost', 'root', 'admin', 'sample') or die('Error connecting to MySQL server');
$query = "select * from links ORDER BY link_id";
$result = mysqli_query($dbc, $query) or die('Error querying database');

// Start form and table for displaying links and checkboxes
echo '<form name="form1" method="post" action="">';
echo '<table width="400" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">';

// Header row
echo '<tr>';
echo '<td colspan="4" align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><strong>Delete multiple links</strong></td>';
echo '</tr>';

echo '<tr>';
echo '<td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">#</td>';
echo '<td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><strong>Link ID</strong></td>';
echo '<td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><strong>Link Name</strong></td>';
echo '<td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><strong>Link URL</strong></td>';
echo '</tr>';

// Data rows
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) {
    echo '<tr>';
    echo '<td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><input name="checkbox[]" type="checkbox" value="' . $row['link_id'] . '"></td>';
    echo '<td bgcolor="#FFFFFF">' . $row['link_id'] . '</td>';
    echo '<td bgcolor="#FFFFFF">' . $row['link_name'] . '</td>';
    echo '<td bgcolor="#FFFFFF">' . $row['link_url'] . '</td>';
    echo '</tr>';
}

// Submit button
echo '<tr>';
echo '<td colspan="4" align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><input name="delete" type="submit" value="Delete"></td>';
echo '</tr>';

// Closing tags
echo '</table>';
echo '</form>';

// Delete rows if submit button is clicked
if (isset($_POST['delete'])) {
    $checkbox = $_POST['checkbox'];

    for ($i = 0; $i < count($checkbox); $i++) {
        $del_id = $checkbox[$i];
        $sql = "DELETE FROM links WHERE link_id='$del_id'";
        $result = mysqli_query($dbc, $sql);
    }

    // Redirect to a confirmation or success page after deletion
    if ($result) {
        echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=view_links.php">';
    }
}

mysqli_close($dbc);
?></code>
