I have created view which displays a list of nodes. I made a custom module with a function which calls db_query() to delete the specified node in the list. I made a Global:Custom Text field in the view which I made into a link to point to that function. The link works perfectly, the node is deleted from the database table, but now the view still lists a blank line (where that node used to be) which still has the Global:Custom Text field there. How can I get rid of this line completely?
Why not use the Views Bulk Operations module? This is a great module for updating and deleting nodes from Views.

It definitly does look like a useful module. But since I have already created everything myself except for this last issue, do you have an idea how I could do this myself? – user1015214 Apr 17 '12 at 18:21

use node_delete() or node_delete_multiple() instead of db query , but for my opinion , Views bulk operation would be the best Solution – sel_space Apr 17 '12 at 18:37

I have been looking for a good tutorial on node_delete() and I can't find one. It takes one parameter, $nid. In the function I mentioned above, how can it know what the $nid is? Is it automatically passed when I click the link in the view? – user1015214 Apr 17 '12 at 18:59
