Occurs after an application deletes a record.

The ``item`` parameter is an item that triggered the event.

Write an on_after_delete event handler to take specific action immediately after 
an application deletes the active record in an item. on_after_delete is called 
by :doc:`delete <m_delete>` after it deletes the record, and repositions the 
cursor on the record prior to the one just deleted.
