Hello! I have a view that lists some records (events), one of the fields (events.room_id) is a foreign key. When i display these records I want to display rooms.name, not events.room_id. Can someone give me a nudge (or swift kick) in the right direction on how to do this? I suspect a join of some

You can just replace td{{=event.room_id}}/td with td{{=event.room_id.name}}/td This will result in one extra select per record. You can also use a join #default.py def index(): events = db(db.events.room_id==db.rooms.id).select(orderby=db.events.event_date) return dict(events=events)

I read in another thread that all that is needed for a host to support web2py is python2.4+. However I tried and failed to run web2py on Hostgator, which does support python2.5. It is likely possible, but my Apache-fu is not strong enough. What would be great is a list of hosts that are known to

The main feature of web2py is that appliances are data and are treated as such. Consider a CMS app that wants to install, for example, a plugin. A plugin contains code and needs to be installable at runtime. The plugin may also modify other application files (such as replace a layout or a model).

models files in web2py are defined as containers for things you want to expose to all controllers. If something should not be exposed to all controllers do not put it in a model, put it in a module and import the module where needed. web2py keywords like DAL, SQLFORM, etc, exist in the namespace
