It was just a thought. While entering data into a timetable table I found it inconvenient that I had to select the day time and again from the drop box, which defaults to Monday. Same thing when I entered data into a table that contains the opening hours of a creche facility in a fitness and health club. In this case I would like to keep the day (defaults to Monday) and the facility (ordered alphabetically), not the time fields. As I said, just a thought to improve usability to the user. > This should be a relatively simple quesition if you are talking about a > value last saved - boiling down to "now that I've selected / retrieved the > last value, how do I programmatically set that as the default in the form?" The problem is I lack the proficiency in Python to program something like this myself. Becoming proficient in Python figures highest on my to do list, e.g. I need validators based on key value pairs in query results, not being able to program them myself is rather frustrating.... > Try if form.accepts(...,keepvalues=True) does what you ask. keepvalues=True keeps all the values, whereas I only want to keep specific values.
