Something like this?
def delete_things():
table = TABLE()
recs = db(db.things.id > 0).select()
for rec in recs:
chk = INPUT(_type='checkbox',
_name='st_%s' % rec.id)
table.append(TR(rec.id,rec.name,chk))
form = FORM(table,INPUT(_type='submit'))
if form.accepts(request.vars,session):
for k,v in request.vars.items():
if k.startswith('st_'):
id = k.split('_')[-1]
db(db.things.id == int(id)).delete()
return dict(form=form)
