I found this thread that has a similar problem:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/web2py/form$20in$20layout.html/web2py/JRxUYp_YpHk/4uVM7kg9Ja4J
The example was:
def contact():
form=SQLFORM.factory(....)
if form.accepts(....)
return form # not dict(form=form)
and in layout.html
{{=LOAD('default','contact')}}
But in my case I would like to use {{=form.custom.begin}} and
{{=form.custom.end}} to format the html in a certain way. How would this be
possible?
Also, is it possible to not use javascript to have a search form on every
page?
