hey all,

i'm trying to push the IDs of some records deleted in my MySQL database into an array and have it return something like, "records (numbers of each record deleted here) deleted".

any ideas as to how i could do this?

sub delete_forum {
    
    my $self = shift;
    my $q    = $self->query;

    $self->dbh->do(     
    q{ DELETE FROM mx_forums WHERE id=? },
    {}, 
    $_) for $q->param('forum');

    # icky, i suppose, but it's just a hunch
    my @deleted;
    push @deleted, $_ for $q->param('forum');

    return $frm->build_page( { title => "MX::FORUMS::ADD" , output => 
+"Forum " . join ',', @deleted . " deleted." } );    

}
