Answer 1

I used flaskr as a base for my Flask project (as it looks like you did as well).

In the .py:

@app.route('/delete', methods=['POST'])
def delete_entry():
if not session.get('logged_in'):
    abort(401)
g.db.execute('delete from entries where id = ?', [request.form['entry_id']])
g.db.commit()
flash('Entry deleted')
return redirect(url_for('show_entries'))

In the HTML:

I wanted a button, but you could easily use a link with the solution here.
