I am trying to utilize the SQLFORM magic as much as possible and ran into 
the below scenario and hopeful that the SQLFORM can handle it.  

 


Scenario 


   -  I have an account that can have multiple projects which is defined 
   here:
   
 

db.define_table(*'Account'*,
                Field(

                Field(*'name'*, type=*'string'*, requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()),
                Field(

                Field(*'is_active'*, type=*'boolean'*),
                auth.signature,
                

                auth.signature,

                format=
*'%(name)s'                 *

                )

 

db.define_table(*'Project'*,
                Field(

                Field(*'name'*, type=*'string'*),
                Field(

                Field(*'description'*, type=*'string'*),
                Field(

                Field(*'account_id'*, db.Account),
                auth.signature,
                

                auth.signature,

                format=*'%(name)s'
                *

                )

 

   - When a user is created they are assigned to an account through 
   auth_user extended fields. in this example the user's account_id is 1. 
   
 


   - I made a changecontrol model that references the project model.
   
db.define_table(*'changecontrol'*,
                Field(

                Field(*'project_id'*, db.Project, label=*'Project Name'*),
                Field(

                Field(*'name'*, type=*'string'*, requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()),
                auth.signature,
                

                auth.signature,

                format=*'%(name)s'
                *

                )

 

My controller looks like this: 

*def *new():
    form = SQLFORM(db.changecontrol).process()

    return locals()

 

 Question

      I would like the list of projects to appear in a dropdown that are 
only associated with the Logged in user’s account (for example account_id 
would be 1).    

  

      How do I filter the projects on the form to only show the projects 
that are associated with an account_id  of 1?

Thanks in advance!
