# Basic idea from :
https://mail.google.com/mail/?shva=1#search/delete+button/139d8ffdbb78d345
form.element(_id='delete_record__row')['_class']='hidden'
form.add_button(T('Delete'), '#', _class='btn-small btn-danger')
delete_confirmation = T('Are you sure you want to delete this
record?')
form.element('input[value='+T('Delete')+']')['_onclick'] = "if
(confirm('%s')) { jQuery('input[type=checkbox].delete').attr('checked',
'checked');
jQuery('#delete_record__row').removeAttr('class').removeAttr('style');
jQuery('form').submit(); }" % delete_confirmation
Finally... A bit annoying to have to keep the check to delete though
