I am new to FormBuilder. I tried the example in the package and now I would like to add a delete-button to the form. How can I achieve this?

Hi Hakan, well, you'll have to add the delete button and react to it manually. FormBuilder does not handle deletes automatically. A possibility would be to define a postGenerateForm() method in your DataObject-derived class where you add the button: function postGenerateForm(&$form) {

    $form->addElement('submit', 'Delete', 'Delete');

} Then, in your main script, you have to check if this was the submit button that was pressed and then delete the object: if (isset($_POST['Delete'])) {

    $myDataObject->delete();

} Of course, the DataObject's primary key field needs to be set first.

Thanks, that worked! bye Hakan
