[ic] [userdb] function to delete addresses?

[Interchange user]

Well, still trying to get somewhere with multiple shipping addresses. :-(

First question: Is there a [userdb] function to delete addresses in the 
address book?

Secondly, I have put the following code in the checkout page; the problem is 
that shipping address nicknames with spaces in are returned as separate 
selection options. I notice the values that get_shipping_names puts in the 
address_book variable are separated by spaces, so there's no way of 
differentiating between nicknames with spaces in, and separate nicknames. As 
I understand it, loop tags support comma-separated lists, so is there an easy 
way to get the get_shipping_names function to comma-separate the values?


[userdb function=get_shipping_names]
[if value address_book]

    <SELECT NAME="s_nickname">
    [loop arg="[value address_book]"] <OPTION> [loop-code] [/loop]
    </SELECT>
    <INPUT TYPE=submit NAME=mv_check VALUE="Recall Shipping">

    [set Recall Shipping]
      mv_todo=return
      mv_nextpage=ord/checkout
      [userdb function=get_shipping nickname="[value s_nickname]"]
    [/set]

[/if]
