*THIS*: db.recipe.category.requires=[IS_IN_DB(db, db.category.id, db.category.name)] Will give you text box with auto complete widget. *THIS*: db.recipe.category.requires=IS_IN_DB(db, db.category.id, db.category.name) Will give you dropdown widget Just a matter of [ ]

We have a small problem in the use of IS_IN_DB. Only you can use this, and if want to use a IS_NOT_EMPTY for example, does not display the dropdown list. _ *Gilson Filho* *Web Developer http://gilsondev.com*
