Have you tried using hidden fields in a single form? You can use
JavaScript's onclick method to set your hidden fields based on the link you
click, and then to submit the form using formname.submit(); - your form can
the use the POST method. You can use the onsubmit=return confirm('are you
sure you want to delete'); to make sure a link checker never gets to delete
anything... it's also a good idea to have a JavaScript confirmation for your
users as they may not want to delete. Remember, of course, that this does
not stop anyone from deleting records with malicious intent - they can
submit a form from any other web site that is identical to yours - so you
will need an additional verification (login with cookies/session, etc).
