Help needed for adding and edit & delete link in a column in a view table

Question

I need to implement views with a table format to display fields for selected content. I would like one of the columns to have edit/delete links that will request perform the desired task for the row selected. I have seen it done on sites, but have not found an example In which to review the view configuration.

Clarification: Each row in a table represents a content node and each column would display a field in the content type. I want to put an edit link that will call up the specific node in that row in the editing form.

Answer 1

Could you just add a field with the node ID and rewrite it to reconstruct the url, inserting the node id where applicable (different structures for different entity types)?

Answer 2

There is a module for that which could help you: the editablefields module.

This module allows CCK fields to be edited on a node's display (e.g. at node/123), not just on the node edit pages (e.g. node/123/edit). It also works within the Views module, etc. Anywhere a 'formatter' can be selected, you can select editable (or click to edit).

This module has been totally re-written for Drupal 6, and it is very much simpler.
