Tom,
Definitely can, I re broke it and the HTML is as follows from IE's source
function. Now I also noticed that I had a top most nested <form></form>
tags that were not correct so I fixed them all but this is the HTML output
from the non working version. I wonder if a top level <form></form> tag
will corrupt any other similar tags below it.

Could you provide the HTML from the initial setup (the one that was broken)?
I'm curious about what was output to the browser (since that's what dictates
where the form is sent anyway)
Thanks

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";

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.
