Hi Folk

I would like to present my user with a list of items and the option to delete one of them. I can make the list with <a href="myurl/?delete=ID">delete this one</a>. However, how do I setup a function that recognises the get variable so that the item can be deleted.

After that, should I do something like Director::loadSelf()?

What is best practice for dealing with Get variables (as described above)?

Also, is there some built-in Ajax functionality that I could use? OPTIONAL EXTRA :-)

Thanks a million

Nicolaas

there are formfields which provide a UI for listing/deleting subclasses of DataObject or Page (with ajax-goodness, pagination, ...):

Controller→requestParams - please make sure you properly escape GET/POST (http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=secure-development)

alternatively, you can use "urlParams" for this: Director::urlParams(), Controller→urlParams
by default, each url is built like this: controller/action/ID/OtherID
(where each of the parts is an associative index in the urlParams-array)

Thanks Ingo!
