My app includes a simple SQLFORM for generating payment receipts. The
payment amount is stored as type='decimal(10,2)' using a MySQL database.
All works fine if the user enters the payment amount using just numbers (eg
'1000'). However, if they include a ',' for the thousands separator in the
payment amount field (eg '1,000'), it throws the following error:

<class '_mysql_exceptions.OperationalError'>((1136, "Column count doesn't
match value count at row 1"))
The code is:
Model:
db.define_table('receipt',
Field('student', db.student, required=True, default=request.args(0),
readable=False, writable=False),
Field('receipt_number', type='string', length=10, required=True,
label=T('Receipt #')),
Field('payment_date', type='date', default= datetime.date.today(),
label=T('Payment Date')),
Field('payment_amount', type='decimal(10,2)',
label=T('Payment Amount')))
Controller:
def create_receipt():
db.receipt.student.default=s.id
db.receipt.student.readable=False
db.receipt.student.writable=False
form = SQLFORM(db.receipt)
if form.process().accepted:
session.flash = T("New receipt created")
redirect(URL('print_receipt', args=form.vars.id))
elif form.errors:
response.flash = 'form has errors'
return dict(form=form)
Any suggestions on how to prevent this would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Andy
