check the resulting html markup for sqlform.factory. As it's intended originally to work with Fields that don't belong to a table, the "table" part prefix to every field is "no_table". So, your "#appointments_unit" that is probably related to a table appointments and a field unit with SQLFORM,

When you say you are using request.vars.id, do you mean you have an "id" variable in the query string, as in /myform?id=1? If so, change the name of that variable to something else, as the edit form will include its own hidden field with the name "id" -- so upon submission, there will be a requ
