      <h3>Outline</h3>

      <p>Here are the steps for implementing bulk operations</p>

      <ul>
        <li>
          Extract a partial of the table and wrap it in a form that uses the <code>ic-src</code> attribute to
          re-render the table.  Give the form a useful ID.
        </li>
        <li>
          Add bulk operation buttons that post to the same URL that the table sources from using the
          <a href="/attributes/ic-post-to.html"><code>ic-post-to</code></a> attribute, and include the
          checked rows by using the <a href="/attributes/ic-post-to.html"><code>ic-post-to</code></a>.
        </li>
      </ul>
