Hi Richard,
Thanks for the reply! I decided to go with an easier solution due to time
constraints but I'm still very interested in how my issue would've been
solved. You mention to pass the _onclick variable as a kwarg but the A()
helper would not accept it. Also, I do not understand how I would be able
to send it to my 'extend' controller function or how the A() _onlick prompt
would trigger. Can you please clarify your solution?
Regards,
Jimmy
