Rahul,
What is not working?
When you click the button, does your reqstatus function fire at all?
You can find out by inserting "print 'hello, world'" as the first line
of the function, then looking at the web2py console for output. If
you run in command line, the rocket output shows up in the terminal
session where you started web2py.
If the function isn't firing, then your link is malformed.
If the function is firing and the table isn't being updated then your
problem is somehow in the function. Expanding on Martin's suggestion,
something like this should work.
query = db.mytable.id == request.args[0]
db(query).update(myfield = some_value)
links = [lambda row: A(SPAN(_class='icon plus'),'Send
Request',_class='positive
button',_href=URL("default","reqstatus",args=[row.id]))]
