One Python helper I find enormously useful is "extend()" as applied to list objects. Extend differs from append in that it adds the items of the list provided at the same level as the current list items, thereby "extending" the list.
An example: body = DIV("this","is","the","body") Result: a DIV with four elements in it. body.append(["and","additional","elements"]) Result: Not what you wanted! It appends a list to the original DIV making a mess. body.extend(["and","additional","elements"]) This is what you wanted: DIV("this","is","the","body","and","additional","elements") I've been monkey-patching "extend" into DIV quite awhile now and thought you may want to consider adding it to the DIV helper. Here is my monkey-patch: def extend(self,coll): self._setnode(coll) ret = self.components.extend(coll) self._fixup() return ret DIV.extend = extend -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
