[web2py] Crash in gluon/html.py

2014-03-24 Thread Chris Hobbs 
html.py does not seem to be unicode-safe. It contains (line 1914 or 
thereabouts):

components.append(OPTION(c, _value=str(c)))

In my case c contains Max-Guénaël (i.e., uMax-Gu\xe9na\xebl). The str(c) 
dies nastily.

Is this a bug or am I asking too much of web2py?

[web2py] Crash in gluon/html.py caused by unicode characters

2014-03-24 Thread Chris Hobbs 
I tried to post this problem earlier, but it doesn't seem to have appeared. 
If it has now appeared twice, then I apologise and suggest you read the two 
stereoscopically.

/gluon/html.py in _fixup at line 1914 has the line

components.append(OPTION(c, _value=str(c)))

This call to str() coughs and explodes when presented with the string 
uMax-Gu\xe9na\xebl 
as it was in my application yesterday as part of a SELECT().

Should this be unicode-safe or am I expecting too much of web2py?
