Anthony, I've followed this tutorial here: http://www.web2py.com/book/default/chapter/07#FORM
my default.py looks like def display_form(): form=FORM('Your name:', INPUT(_name='name', requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()), INPUT(_type='submit')) if form.accepts(request,session): response.flash = 'form accepted' elif form.errors: response.flash = 'form has errors' else: response.flash = 'please fill the form' return dict(form=form) and i'm not sure where in there I can assign a variable to run through a series of checks. I have a lot of checks I want to run the IP through and compare it against our SQL database. I just have to assign the input to a variable first.
