request.args(0)... If user input 4 instead of 1 and access the page you can get the args the same way you do it if you pass args value programmatically...
Is you question to know how you can avoid that or kind of double check if programmatically passed args doens't change? If so, maybe it is not exactly what you want, but maybe signing url can help : http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/04/the-core?search=signed+url#Digitally-signed-urls This suppose to avoid modification of url by user because if url signature change processing is trunked somehow, I gues you can implement your own logic about that...
