Massimo, The last 2 posts look like they're off thread. Back to the custom form with auth profile:
# model auth_table = db.define_table( auth.settings.table_user_name, Field('email',length=128,label=T('Email'),default='',unique=True), Field('password','password',readable=False,label=T('Password'), requires=CRYPT()), Field('first_name',length=128,label=T('First name'),default='', requires=(IS_NOT_EMPTY(error_message=auth.messages.is_empty), IS_NOT_IN_DB(db,'auth_user.first_name'))), Field('last_name',length=128,label=T('Last name'),default='', requires=(IS_NOT_EMPTY(error_message=auth.messages.is_empty), IS_NOT_IN_DB(db,'auth_user.last_name'))), Field('user_name',length=128,label=T('User name'),default='', unique=True,requires=IS_NOT_IN_DB(db,'auth_user.user_name')), Field('registration_key',length=128,default='', writable=False,readable=False), Field('country','string',length=15,label=T('Country'), requires=IS_NULL_OR(IS_IN_SET(COUNTRIES))), ) auth.settings.table_user = auth_table # controller def user(): if request.args(0)=='profile': db.auth_user.first_name.readable=db.auth_user.first_name.writable=False db.auth_user.last_name.readable=db.auth_user.last_name.writable=False return dict(form=auth()) Now, I'm sorry to have to ask for this, but what is wrong with this view and why won't it work? (I'm transcribing here, so I hope I don't have any typos) #view {{extend 'layout.html'}} {{if request.args(0)=='profile' :}} {{=form.custom.begin}} {{=TABLE( TR(TH(form.custom.label['email']),TD(form.custom.widget.email)), TR(TH(form.custom.label['user_name']),TD (form.custom.widget.user_name)), TR(TH(form.custom.label['country']),TD(form.custom.widget.country)), ) }} {{=INPUT(_type='submit',_name='profile',_value='Save Changes')}} {{=form.custom.end}} {{pass}} Again, pardon if I made any typos. The actual code has no typos and throws no tickets and is basically the same. Would much appreciate any help to solve this conundrum. Probably something really simple and stupid, but I'm not seeing it. Also, as an aside, I tried again to get rid of the first and last name fields, since I don't want them and don't use them, but web2py 1.72.3 doesn't like that. I thought this had been changed awhile back? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
