I have a basic update form code that is called via a HREF form another view and form a menu. The problem is the redirect to the referrer is not working. I looked in the forums and have tried to debug. I understand the form is posting back to itself which is why the form is redirected to itself. The forums offer several solutions that depend on a hidden form element embedded in the calling view which are save as request.vars. I am not sure how to make this work with a menu. I hope there is a clean elegant way to accomplish this. Any help would be apprecaited..
@auth.requires_login() def editmeeting(): if not request.args: session.flash = 'Invalid parameter' redirect(URL(r=request, c='default', f='index')) meeting = db(db.meeting.id == request.args(0)).select() if len(meeting): meeting = meeting[0] else: session.flash = 'Invalid meeting' redirect(URL(r=request,c='default',f='index')) form=SQLFORM(db.meeting,meeting, submit_button='Update Meeting') if form.accepts(request.vars, session): redirect(request.env.http_referer) elif form.errors: response.flash = 'Invalid data.' return dict(form=form)
