Not sure what was going on, but it seems to be getting past the error
message now.  However--when I use these lines of code, it gives the
proper message that "Page <Group>.<Name> has been deleted.", but there
on the pagelist, it still exists, and I can browse to it.  Any ideas
why it is not deleting?

Here is the full code.

		if ($field == "destroy") {
			$p = explode(",", $value);
			foreach($p as $pp) {
				$pp = ZAPfixpage($pp);
				if ($pp != $pagename) {
					$oldpage = ReadPage($pp);
					$newpage = $oldpage;
					$newpage['text'] = "delete";
					UpdatePage($d, $oldpage, $newpage);
					$m .= "Page $pp has been deleted.  ";
					}
				}
			}
