Hi MorningZ: I think your first approach is better for me. Finally I do:
beforedelete: function(NODE)// before delete - should return true | false { $.ajax({ type: "POST", url: "/goicms/admin/removenode", async: false, data: "node=" + NODE, success: function(data) { if (data == 1) isOK = true; else isOK = false; }); return isOK; } Thank you very much for your help.
