Problem updating rows of recordset with repeat region

Question

Hi,
So here's what I'm trying to do - I have a repeat region displaying a series of rows from a recordset. Each row has an "id" value and a "Votes" value. The id value is just an identifier, and the Votes value is the total number of votes. The rows are then organized by the Votes column in descending order (so that the row with the "most Votes" is displayed at the top). The whole thing is set up in kind of a table, so each row has a "Vote" button. When a user clicks the button it is supposed to increase that row's Votes by 1 - in effect creatign a Digg-style system.
I'm having two problems-
1. How can I get id value for the current row when using repeat region? I would assume that I first have to figure out the row, but how would I got about this?
2. This is probably a much simpler problem, but how do I add to a mysql integer instead of just replacing the number? Is there any add function? Or can I do it the "BASIC way" (x = x + y)?
Now for my code. What is here right now is a pretty simple "frame" of a website using PHP for the server-side scripting and MySQL for the database. Also, most of the PHP is generated by Dreamweaver, since I'm pretty novice when it comes to PHP.
Here is my "repeat region" section alone-
<?php do { ?>
    <table width="780" border="0">
      <tr>
        <td width="195"><?php echo $row_all['Title']; ?></td>
        <td width="195"><?php echo $row_all['Genre']; ?></td>
        <td width="130"><?php echo $row_all['Year']; ?></td>
        <td width="130"><?php echo $row_all['Votes']; ?></td>
        <td width="65"><a href=<?php
          $id1 = $row_all['id'];
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
if (!$con)
  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("dig", $con);
mysql_query("UPDATE list SET Votes =300 WHERE id = '$id1'");
mysql_close($con);
?> >+1</a></td>
        <td width="65">-1</td>
      </tr>
    </table>
    <?php } while ($row_all = mysql_fetch_assoc($all)); ?>
And, for the sake of completition, here is the entire file-
BANNER
MENU
CONTENT
  LIST                                                                     
+1
-1
Just let me know if you need any more info, and thanks in advance!
