You can't point the action of the form directly to the SQL method
because it is not a web template. I would suggest having the form call
itself and add some dtml logic at the top to determine that the user
deleted something. Have it then fire off the SQL method before drawing
the checkboxes. Something like so:

<dtml-if delete>
	<dtml-call name="sqlDeleteClips">
</dtml-if>

<form action="&dtml-URL;">
<dtml-in sqlSelectClips>
    <input type="checkbox" name="ids:list" value="&dtml-id;" />
    <dtml-var name="title"><br />
</dtml-in>
<input type="submit" name="delete" value="Delete" />
</form>

Substitute your field names for "id" and "title" above.
