Thanks Massimo. However, using
auth.settings.profile_onvalidation.append(reauthenticate_user)
has presented a problem of its own.
I insert an extra field ("confirm_password"), to recheck in the
onvalidation method. However, the form.vars does not contain
form.vars.confirm_password, which worked before when I was using form.
process(onvalidation=reauthenticate_user)
Here is the relevant code:
auth.settings.profile_onvalidation.append(reauthenticate_user)
form=auth.profile()
my_extra_element = TR(LABEL('Confirm Password'),INPUT(_type="password",_name
="confirm_password", _class="string"))
form[0].insert(-1,my_extra_element)
def reauthenticate_user(form):
#recheck the user password
plain_password = form.vars.confirm_password
if db.auth_user.password.validate(plain_password) != (db(db.auth_user.id
==auth.user.id).select().first().password, None):
form.errors.confirm_password = "Must enter correct password"
The form passed into reauthenticate_user does not contain
form.vars.confirm_password variable. Any ideas on why this happens now, but
not before?
