Well, one option - I'm not sure how easy it is, because I don't know if you're talking Drupal 5 or Drupal 6 - would be to find all the forms that would try to delete a user via user_delete, and change the validation of those forms using hook_form_alter to call your validation function before the submit comes along and does a user_delete on them. That wouldn't require hacking core.
Thanks John. I am using Drupal 6.2.
I am sure what you say will work, and I will be able to change validate handler though form_alter, and validate hook will be called before user is deleted. Only problem I guess is that: it will be called only once even if multiple users are being deleted ('coz it's form validate handler, not user delete handler). Right?
If possible, I wanted my validate function to be called for individual user, and delete/not delete user based on errors returned by validate hook.
Your module can modify the value for the MENU_CALLBACK item to action a different function which will eventually call the appropriate _submit hook. Earnie -- http://for-my-kids.com/ -- http://give-me-an-offer.com/
