This doesn't sound like anything that the developer of fancyindex needs to help you with. It sounds like a very specialized request and you already have all the tools to build this using your own html, css, and javascript.

Offering a way to delete a file would have to be implemented with a server side script, such as one written in php, lua, njs, etc. Be very careful how you implement this capability. You probably don't want random web visitors from the Internet (or even web crawling robots) to be able to delete any arbitrary file on your server, so you'll probably want to lock it down to only being able to delete files in a particular directory, or only matching a particular naming pattern, and you may want to restrict it only to certain logged in users.
