3</form>
4<form action="adm_edit.php?product_code=$record[0]" method="POST">
5<input type=submit value=Delete>

Take care when using quotes from html elements in echos, also when using variables! When using ' instead of ", you also have to put quotes in front of the variable and that way you stop echoing a string and can start with echoing a variable. You need to concatenate the var and the string with a . !

This will work :

echo '
<form action="adm_edit.php?product_code='.$record[0].'" method="POST">
<input type=submit value=Edit>
</form>
<form action="adm_edit.php?product_code='.$record[0].'" method="POST">
<input type=submit value=Delete>
</form>
';
