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. -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
