John,
Thank you for the kind words and advice.
Also, thanks for pointing out about the template requirements.
My big problem with the method I posted above, ie:
{% block options %} <p><a href="http://localhost:8000/sam/quote/
delete/{{ object.id }}">delete</a>{% endblock %}
is that it violates the DRY principle because I have to go on each
template and add a different link. I.e.
project form:
<p><a href="http://localhost:8000/sam/project/
delete/{{ object.id }}">delete</a>
email form:
<p><a href="http://localhost:8000/sam/email/
delete/{{ object.id }}">delete</a>
I'm thinking there must be a more elegant way to implement this
functionality, which must be extremely common?
