Just a couple of questions:- By "The basic idea is to use represent to show a field in the grid as an INPUT tag" does it mean that what this does is enable editing fields 'in place' which isn't what the basic SQLFORM.grid offers? It also says "to add a submit button to SQLFORM.grid", but there isn't a submit button. Does the bit about boolean checkboxes just mean that these are rather more difficult to implement? (I don't need them). Presumably the plugin_SQLFORM_INLINE plugin is an alternative way to do the same thing - using a plugin and some javascript. Thanks! It looks as if I will try diving into web2py. :-) > > On Tuesday, June 3, 2014 7:25:19 AM UTC-5, c...@isbd.net wrote: > > > > This may be trying to run before I can walk but never mind! :-) > > > > Is it easy to create a grid type table editing form in web2py?
