Finally, I figured out!!
My compute need the record id, so I shouldn't do this :
if f != db[request.args(0)]._id
To filter out the record id from the update... I have been miss leading by
some example, but I can't recall where they were from, I just search bit
and can't retrieve any (neither
No, the compute field should not be in the form/form.vars. Hard to say what
the problem is. Maybe create a minimal app that reproduces the problem.

IMHO the hiccup comes from the fact that fields that are writable = False
are not rendered as an input/select/whatever, but they're just a TD cell
filled with data. Of course the form isn't submitting it.

web2py doesn't know if a field has been edited or not. form.vars (for a
standard web2py form) holds EVERY value, irregardless of the ones touched
or not by the user...

Prevent my compute to work since it return only the fields modify by the
user... I need to understand how web2py really update on form submit and
why compute works in this case...
Or how can I make sure
Hello,
I need to do control record update in order to clear some fields values in
case a flag is set to false. But doing the update like this :
db(db[request.args(0)].id == request.args(1)).update(**{f: v for f, v in
form.vars.iteritems()})
prevent a compute field to be trigger and updating
Does form.vars include all the variables needed by the compute function?
Also, instead of:
**{f: v for f, v in form.vars.iteritems()}
you can do:
**db[request.args(0)]._filter_fields(form.vars)
_filter_fields will filter out the id field as well as any form.vars that
are not fields in the
Thanks for answering Anthony,
Actually f1 and f2 belongs to the table, I am filtering them because I want
to treat them separately...
About your question, I am investigating why my compute didn't work... My
first impression is that it is not include in form.vars so it not get hit
at all... But I
The update should calculate the computed field as long as all the values
needed for the calculation are included with the update.
