form = crud.update(...,next='...')
is equivalent to
form = SQLFORM(...)
if form.accepts(request.vars,session):
session.flash='....'
redirect(next)
curd.create is the same as crud.update but makes a new record instead
of creating an existing one. When you use SQLFORM you explicitly pass
all parameters, while in crud.create/update you have some sensible
defaults and you change them via crud.settings.
You can add elements in both cases with
form[0].append(TR('label',INPUT(_name='xxx'),''))
In crud.create/update you must process 'xxx' in the onaccept function.
In SQLFORM you have have more flexibility and you can do it after
accept, before redirect.
