Data Manager customization: listingMultiActions

The listingMultiActions customization allows you to completely override the buttons that appear when a user selects multiple rows in a regular listing table. It should return a string containing the rendered buttons.

Note: the buttons that appear here rely on some javascript to turn into something useful for the subsequent request. Each button should be of type submit and have a unique name that will be sent to the next request as the value of rc.multiAction. Customize in conjunction with the multiRecordAction customization that can process the result.

For example:

// /application/handlers/admin/datamanager/GlobalDefaults.cfc
component {

	private string function listingMultiActions( event, rc, prc, args={} ) {
		return renderView( view="/admin/datamanager/_myCustomMultiActions", args=args );
	}

}
