Okay everyone, I am completely new to web2py and have what I hope is a simple question. I have been hung up for days trying to build a custom form that, upon submittal, will reload the page it is on including the REST value at the end of the URL. I am generating a custom form in Python and passing it to the view. Basically, I want to submit a form on a page with the URL of:
http://example/VSE/default/test_case/1 and cause it to reload that exact URL upon submittal. The problem I am having is that upon submittal, it goes to: http://example/VSE/default/test_case which has no data in it because I am using that variable (which is t2.id) to choose what data to show and that variable is missing upon submittal. I hope to eventually have multiple forms on the page and I have some scaffolding in place (modify_form); however, I haven't even tried to get any of that to work until I can get the create_form function to work. You can probably ignore it; however, I figured I would include it in case someone notices something in it that is causing the problem in the first form. If I could get the top one (create_form) to post and then refresh the page instead of jumping to the base controller page I would be pretty excited. Anyone have any ideas? I am posting the controller and a function from the model below. Please forgive the hideous code. I am appropriately embarrassed by it; however it is a work in progress and I haven't gone back to clean it up yet and I am really stuck here. All of it works other than the page it goes to upon submittal so any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks for any help that anyone can provide. #Controller Code @t2.requires_login(next='login') def test_case(): form = t2.create(db.function_test) create_form = FORM(TABLE(THEAD(TR('ID', 'Functionality', 'Task', 'Expected Result', 'Test Status', 'Regression', 'Comments', 'AC*', 'AT**', _class='header')), (TR(DIV('*', _class='id'), TEXTAREA(_name='functionality', _class='functionality'), TEXTAREA(_name='task', _class='task'), TEXTAREA(_name='expected_result', _class='expected_result'), SELECT(test_status_menu('Not Run'), _name='test_status', _class='test_status'), TEXTAREA(_name='comments', _class='comments'), TEXTAREA(_name='regression', _class='regression'), INPUT(_type='checkbox', _name='affects_clients'), INPUT(_type='checkbox', _name='client_acceptance_test'), INPUT(_type='hidden', _name='test_case', _value=t2.id), custom(db.function_test))), _class='function_tests', _cellspacing='0'), INPUT(_type='submit', _action='', _method='post', _value='Create Function Test')) function_tests = [] for i in db(db.function_test.test_case==t2.id).select(): function_tests.append( FORM(TD(TR(DIV(i.id, _class='id'), TEXTAREA(_name='functionality_'+str(i.id), value=i.functionality, _class='functionality'), TEXTAREA(_name='task_'+str(i.id), value=i.task, _class='task'), TEXTAREA(_name='expected_result_'+str(i.id), value=i.expected_result, _class='expected_result'), SELECT(test_status_menu(i.test_status), _name='test_status_'+str(i.id), _class='test_status'), TEXTAREA(_name='comments_'+str(i.id), value=i.comments, _class='comments'), TEXTAREA(_name='regression_'+str(i.id), value=i.regression, _class='regression'), INPUT(_type='checkbox', _name='affects_clients_'+str(i.id), value=i.affects_clients), INPUT(_type='checkbox', _name='client_acceptance_test_'+str (i.id), value=i.client_acceptance_test))))) head = THEAD(TR('ID', 'Functionality', 'Task', 'Expected Result', 'Test Status', 'Regression', 'Comments', 'AC*', 'AT**', _class='header')) modify_form = DIV(TABLE(head, function_tests, _class='function_tests', _cellspacing='0'), P('*AC = Affects Clients, ' + '**AT = Client Acceptance Test', _class='legend')) return dict(modify_form=modify_form, create_form=create_form) Model: def custom(table): """ Allows me to build custom tables instead of the built in ones by returning a table with two hidden fields; one with the formname and one with the formkey.
