Re: [web2py] Re: Add button to form & access from view
There are some design issues here. The main think is that you click on the
button you want something to happen without the reloading the page. Yet you
make the callback=URL() point to the same action that generates the
page while it should point to a separate action which just performs the
callback. You need two actions. One renders the page and one deals with the
callback events.
For example:
db.define_table('friend',Field('name'))
def manage(): # renders page
form = SQLFORM(db.friend)
friends = db(db.friend).select()
return dict(form=form,friends=friends)
def delete_friend(): # executes callback
# should check permissions but ok for now...
del db.friend[request.port_vars.id]
return 'done'
% views/default/manage.html
{{extend 'layout.html'}}
{{=form}}
{{for friend in friends:}}
{{=friend.name}}
{{=A('delete',callback=URL('delete_friend',vars=dict(id=friend.id),delete='tr'))}}
{{pass}}

The delete argument indicates that upon success you want to remove the

the confirmation popup is automatic. ;-)

[web2py] Re: Add button to form & access from view
BTW...
def edit_record():
...
if request.vars.deltutorlink:
response.flash = T('deltutorlink reached!')
...
If edit_record is called via ajax and not within a component,
than response.flash is not displayed because there is no view associated to
the callback. You can do:
def edit_record():
...
if request.vars.deltutorlink:
response.js = "jQuery('.flash').html('deltutorlink
reached!').slideDown()"
...
and the response flash will be injected in the proper place.

None. You are asking to ":eval" the result. It meas the action is supposed
to return JS
def test():
return "alert('hello')"
anyway, you should debug this with the JS console in chrome. We do not
know exactly how your code looks like.

Please pardon my ignorance, I didn't know there was a button helper.
And thanks Massimo, I'll give the A with the class btn a try now!

[web2py] Re: Add button to form & access from view
As NIphlod says there is a BUTTON helper. Yet instead of
Delete Role
I would do:
{{=A('Delete Role', _id="b_normal", _class="btn btn-danger",
callback=URL('test'), target=':eval')}}
which will look the same. Why use BUTTON when you can use A with class
"btn" and works the same?

[web2py] Re: Add button to form & access from view
Don't take it in the wrong way, I'll start with a little introduction:
web2py is a framework that can do a lot of stuff. When it generates an HTML
page the way you told him so, it returns it to the browser. From then on,
it's just how HTML works: any button (without javascript intercepting the
click event) included a form submits the form it's included in.
Given that you need to call a page instead of submitting the form, why
don't you use a simple link (A()) ?
If you need to use a button for some obscure reason to call a page, either
you generate it OUTSIDE the form, i.e.
...
so it won't trigger the form submission, or you intercept the click in
javascript.
If you want to use the onclick attribute, the shortest route is including
"return false" in the javascript bit attached to it. There are more
elaborate and correct ways to do it but you must learn javascript first.
It's quite pathetic that web2py doesn't provide a BUTTON helper by the
> way...

Please, show us with some code of what you wish for.

'Hello World'
>>> BUTTON('Hello World', _onclick="whatever").xml()
'Hello World'
>>> BUTTON('Hello World', _onclick="whatever", _href=URL('default', 'index'
)).xml()
'Hello
World'
>>> BUTTON('Hello World', _onclick="whatever", _href=URL('default', 'index'
), _type="submit").xml()
'Hello World'
>>> BUTTON('Hello World', _onclick="whatever", _href=URL('default', 'index'
), _type="submit", _class="whateverclass").xml()
'Hello World'
>>> BUTTON('Hello World', _onclick="whatever", callback=URL('default',
'index'), _type="submit", _class="whateverclass").xml()
'Hello
World'

[web2py] Re: Add button to form & access from view
I tried putting this HTML
Delete Role
which I saw on a stackoverflow post. However, even when I do that and click
the button, the form ALWAYS gets submitted. I already have a submit button
so I don't understand why the form is being submitted via other buttons as
well. Does anyone know why this is???

[web2py] Re: Add button to form & access from view
So it's not possible to do this with a button?

[web2py] Re: Add button to form & access from view
onclick accepts a bit of javascript, not an url

[web2py] Re: Add button to form & access from view
I have the button
http://127.0.0.1:8000/examples/global/vars/URL>(del_role)}}" class="btn
btn-danger">Delete Role
And in my controller I try to put def del_role and, if the user has
membership, i want to del_membership for that role. But this doesn't seem
to be working. You were telling me to use _href or callback but, I don't
think I can use those with a button html tag...

They can be combined.

Ok. What's the correct way of associating an action to the HTML button with
web2py?

[web2py] Re: Add button to form & access from view
This is not worth it. If you make a custom form than you are using html,
you may as well make the button in html.
