I improve it a bit by making sure the only form that get submit is the
desired form :
form.element(_id='delete_record__row')['_class']='hidden' # To
hide the "check to delete boolean"
form.add_button(T('Delete'), '#', _class='btn-small
btn-danger') # Add delete button
delete_confirmation = T('Are you sure you want to delete this
record?')
form_name = request.args(0)+'/'+request.args(1) # Default form
name attributed by web2py
form.element('input[value='+T('Delete')+']')['_onclick'] =
"""if (confirm('%s')) {
jQuery('#delete_record__row').removeAttr('class').removeAttr('style');
jQuery('input[type=checkbox].delete').attr('checked', 'checked');
jQuery('form').has("input[name=_formname][value='%s']").submit(); }""" %
(delete_confirmation, form_name) # Attach jQueyr action to the delete
button that will unhide the "check to delete" boolean and then check the
checkbox and finally submit the form
