How to Delete ZClass Instances programmatically??
Hi Zopers I've found the "How-To: Adding ZClass Instances Programmatically", but now I'm looking for the *Deleting ZClass Instances* one! I'm trying this as a beginning (hacked from the Zope management interface):: <dtml-if "AUTHENTICATED_USER.has_role('ContentManager')"> <form action="<dtml-var URL0>" method="post"> </dtml-if> [...] <dtml-if "AUTHENTICATED_USER.has_role('ContentManager')"> <input type="checkbox" name="ids:list" value="<dtml-var id>"> </dtml-if> [...] <dtml-if "AUTHENTICATED_USER.has_role('ContentManager')"> <input type="submit" name="manage_delObjects:method" value="Delete"> </form> </dtml-if> Problems: - it sends me to the management screen afterwards, and I'm calling it from the public interface. - I don't necessarily want to give the 'ContentManager' rights to delete objects; I'd rather manage this through a delete method with the appropriate proxy role. Any advice or RTFM pointers? -- Jean Jordaan -- technical writer -- Mosaic Software -- Zope 2.1.6 on WinNT and W2K
Instead of directing your form to URL0 direct it back to your custom interface. In your form you can evaluate the value of submit to determine the appropriate action: <dtml-if "REQUEST['submit'] == 'Delete'"> <dtml-call "manage_delObjects(ids)"> untested. Roché

Hi Zopers
I've found the "How-To: Adding ZClass Instances Programmatically", but now I'm looking for the *Deleting ZClass Instances* one!
I'm trying this as a beginning (hacked from the Zope management interface)::
<dtml-if "AUTHENTICATED_USER.has_role('ContentManager')"> <form action="<dtml-var URL0>" method="post"> </dtml-if> [...] <dtml-if "AUTHENTICATED_USER.has_role('ContentManager')"> <input type="checkbox" name="ids:list" value="<dtml-var id>"> </dtml-if> [...] <dtml-if "AUTHENTICATED_USER.has_role('ContentManager')"> <input type="submit" name="manage_delObjects:method" value="Delete"> </form> </dtml-if>
Problems:
- it sends me to the management screen afterwards, and I'm calling it from the public interface.
- I don't necessarily want to give the 'ContentManager' rights to delete objects; I'd rather manage this through a delete method with the appropriate proxy role.
