[Zope] Delete multiple posts

[Gitte Wange]

Sorry for me being slow on this but the items I need to delete is in my
MySQL database.
So I only need the code for iterating through the selected items. Then
call the sqlMethod that deletes the items whenever a item is checked.

So I had thought of something like:
<FORM ACTION="DelItems">
<TABLE>
<dtml-in ItemQuery>
    <TR>
        <TD><dtml-var itemname></TD>
        <TD><INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="DeleteArray[]" VALUE="<dtml-var
        id>"></TD>
    </TR>
</TABLE>
</FORM>

The DelItems method:
<dtml-with DeleteArray[]>
    <dtml-call sqlDelItem>
</dtml-with>

But how do you make an array in Zope and is it the correct way to
iterate through it ?
