Hello,
I would like to replace the way web2py allow the deletion of a record.
Instead of the check to delete then confirm then submit... I would add a
delete buttton on which is attached a confirmation message onclick then
when the confirmation is confirmed the record is deleted.
Actually I had this :
form = crud.update(db.table, record)
form.add_button(T('Delete'), '#', _class='btn-small btn-danger')
delete_confirmation = T('Are you sure you want to delete this
record?')
try:
form.element('input[value='+T('Delete')+']')['_onclick'] =
"return confirm ('%s')" % delete_confirmation
except:
pass
What I miss is how to actually set form.deleted=true as said in the book (
http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/07#SQLFORM-and-insert/update/delete
)...
I think I need a bit of JS, that detect the confirmation and will submit
the form.
Am I on the right track?
Richard
