Hi Massimo, Thanks for your help. I think I'm crystal clear on your explanation regarding the button, but I'm still confused on the other issue that Anthony answered previously, despite his and your posts..
In my controller I used: form = SQLFORM.factory(*fields) if form.accepts(request, session): Could you please be a little more specific? What should I use here instead of 'form.accepts' ? I think this is causing me trouble elsewhere in my application, too, and it would be really helpful if I knew a little bit more..
