[web2py] Select Image In Custom Registration

2013-11-21 Thread Noah Corradin
I have a custom registration form and i am getting a good grasp of the 
concepts behind customizing the auth_table.  I was curious about one thing 
i could not find a good direction for.

I want users to be able to select an image from a drop down menu at the 
registration page for their avatar.  Any tips or suggestions on how to 
accomplish this?
Much appreciated in advance.

[web2py] orderby variable, uknown column

2013-11-13 Thread Noah Corradin
can someone explain to me why the following does not perform the way i 
thought it would

This works:
results=db(db.allstats.ptype==ptype).select(db.allstats.ALL, 
orderby=db.allstats.attack)

But this does not:

statA = request.vars.stat1
order='db.allstats.'+statA

results = db(db.allstats.ptype==ptype).select(db.allstats.ALL, 
orderby=order)

i receive: uknown column 'db.allstats.attack'

i've built selects using variables but i cant build orderby with variables? 
any tips would be awesome.

 I would use the ajax+callback mechanism that exists in web2py to do

missed?

 because db.table.field is NOT a string.

 statA = request.vars.stat1
 order='db.allstats.'+statA

 should be

 statA = request.vars.stat1
 order=db.allstats[statA]

[web2py] query from drop down menu

2013-11-05 Thread Noah Corradin
I am trying to execute a query based on the values of 3 drop down menus.  I 
have the following for drop down menus but i am unsure on how to turn the 
selected values into queries.
Is this the proper way to do it in web2py?

{{extend 'layout.html'}}

{{rows = db().select(db.stats.ALL)}} select {{for row in 
rows:}}option{{=row.name}}/option{{pass}} /select
{{rows = db().select(db.stats.ALL)}} select {{for row in 
rows:}}option{{=row.name}}/option{{pass}} /select

any pointers would be great
Thanks!
