Added sessions.id to the select, same thing. Here's the table definition and the controller. The id does show up on the view page, but isn't passing as an arg.
db.define_table('sessions', Field('program_name', 'string', requires=IS_IN_DB(db, db.programs.program_name)), Field('session_type', 'string', requires=IS_IN_SET(['practice', 'evaluation'], zero=None)), Field('session_number', 'integer', default=1), # this is the session number by program, using 0 for evaluations Field('coach', 'string'), Field('assistant', 'string'), Field('session_date_time', 'datetime'), Field('session_name', compute = lambda row: row.program_name + ', ' + row.session_type + ' ' + str(row.session_number)) ) db.sessions.session_name.represent = lambda session_name, row: A(row.session_name, _href=URL('demo', 'tests_for_this_eval', args=db.sessions.id)) @auth.requires_membership('coach') def show_list_of_sessions(): # get list of evaluations evaluations = SQLTABLE(db(db.sessions.session_type=='evaluation').select(db.sessions.id, db.sessions.session_name), headers=None, truncate=128 ) # get list of practices practices = SQLTABLE(db(db.sessions.session_type=='practice').select(db.sessions.session_name), headers=None, truncate=128 ) return dict(evaluations=evaluations, practices=practices) On Friday, March 6, 2015 at 2:16:27 PM UTC-5, Anthony wrote: > > > > On Friday, March 6, 2015 at 2:02:57 PM UTC-5, Leonel Câmara wrote: >> >> you need to write row.sessions.id >> >> You always need to be explicit in represents. >> > > You need to be explicit in virtual fields (i.e., include the table name), > but I don't think that is the case with represent.
