Possible Suggestion/Solution #1

I would approach this a different way: to allow it to scale to a large number of records I would have each record contained in a wrapper class with an additional boolean property to indicate if it should be deleted. This boolean property is exposed in the page as a checkbox. When the delete method is called, the controller can iterate the wrapper classes and delete all of those that have the boolean property set to true.

I believe the above approach is the better way, as you aren't carrying out a postback whenever the user selects an item to delete, rather you have a single postback when the user clicks the delete button, so the user will spend a lot less time waiting for round trips. However, if you have to go this route, it should be as simple as changing your setDeleteId method to append to a list of ids rather than overwriting, as the assignTo attribute simply executes the setter for the property. Something like:

List<Id> idsToDelete=new List<Id>();

public void setDeleteId(String theId)
{
   idsToDelete.add(theId);
}

and then in your delete action method, pass the list of ids into the delete method, e.g.

public PageReference delete()
{
    delete idsToDelete;

    return null; // or wherever you are taking them
}

@user1785489 Taking a try : If you want to build a list every time you click the X mark are you getting the ID related to the row you are clicking?

If this is true in your controller build a string something like

string Ids_todelete ='' ; 
Ids_todelete = Ids_todelete+deleteid ;


database.deleteresult[] DL = database.delete(Ids_todelete,true);

for(database.deleteresult  D : DL){
if(D.Issuccess(){
Ids_todelete = '';
}
}

this way when you click on the X mark the controller's deleteid variable will be getting new values and the Ids_to_delete will be appended with the new Id's from the page. Finally you will have a list of comma seperated Id's and then you can use a In clause and get the records to delete

Hope this helps !!!
