OK, If your database table is setup correctly then in the database examples
section you should be able to create a form similar to the one in example
33 for a many to many relationship.
http://web2py.com/examples/database_examples/buy
(
That example doesn't look like a true many-to-many it looks like a
one-to-many. Because in the example it searches for both id's already being
in the many-to-many table and if they are it only updates. Where as a true
many to many you would have multiple entries IE: (1, 1, 20), (1, 1, 40),
I think what you mean to say is that you are are looking for the ability to
make multiple selections in one or more tables using a single form that
allows you create a user record.
So for example a table of users, a table of email address types and a table
of email addresses but the user on
Hi Christopher,

*That is pretty much what I am after.*

*
*table = keywords values ('Art', 'Games', 'Money') # Used to find all ads
related based on keywords they select*
*table = ad (*
* url,*
* created_by*
* keywords - can have 0 or more keywords, keywords can belong to 0 or more
ad's*
For an example of a Web2py database with a many to many relationship you
can see example number 29 under the database examples section:
http://web2py.com/examples/default/examples
Go to the section called Database Examples
See the first example
I looked at the examples they seem to just show how to link at the database
level. From my example code I already have that part working. It is at the
form/view level I am looking at adding functionality.

Hello, I know django has this ability so I am assuming web2py also does.

The web2py admin works diferently to the django admin.
The web2py admin is for install apps and manage instances.

I understand that, but you can also use the database portion to create new
data. That is mainly the part I am talking about.
When clicking database then insert in a table, it would be nice if the
relationships could be linked on that insert. This would make performing
inserts more efficiently.

Look for controller appadmin under your or any other app folder.
I have solved these kinds of concerns with pyramid based applications using
sqlalchemy. However I need to look into the core of how Web2py handles
things to figure out the best way.
Sqlachemy allows you to put everything in:
1) Transactions
2) Sessions
So on submit you first create the parent
web2py wraps each request in a single transaction by default, so if you
make multiple inserts during a request and the request ultimately fails due
to an error, the inserts should be rolled back automatically.
See http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/4#Workflow
and
This something I would definitely be interested in seeing, as well as
input forms for many-to-many in general (not just admin).
Thanks
