There is a wiki standards effort that is attempting to foster common layouts so that interwiki linking will be easier. http://webseitz.fluxent.com/wiki/WikiStandards As to a good example of a wiki, PmWiki is one of the better ones. (www.pmwiki.org). It is a flat file, PHP based system. DenesL, k

[web2py:21041] Authentication and Authorization

I have a couple of questions about the Auth class. To use authentication I uncommented the following functions in db.py: mail = Mail() mail.settings.server = 'smtp.yourdomain.com:25' mail.settings.sender = 'y...@yourdomain.com' mail.settings.login = 'usern...@password' auth = Auth(globals(), db)

[web2py:21039] Non-relational databases

I'm more interested into a framework backed by a non relational db, mainly MongoDB [1]. By that reason I discard Django, and to Pylons because it hasn't a plugin system that lets reuse/share applications. Is web2py ready to use non-relational databases? [1] http://mongodb.org/ --~--~-~

[web2py:21037] redirection to next page on submit

Hi, I'm new to python and web2py. I have a simple doubt. I've written a form and after the submit button is pressed in the form, I want to print the variables of the form into next page and ask for confirmation. I have written the form in a controller and also the function for the next pag

[web2py:21034] Re: how to get help on web2py

I wish the wiki used the WYSIWYG HTML control for content entry a la T3 instead of the text mode with python doc tags. And then I think an XSL transform should be used to strip out the tags to store a parallel copy of the content that is a pure text 'blob' and then that text blob need to be run th

Hi Massimo, Once again, I forgot the syntax for the limitby clause, so I turned to the built-in doc for help. Unfortunately, the detail syntax of limitby is not mentioned at all. http://www.web2py.com/examples/default/dal Eventually google still guides me to the old document for DAL: http:/

Yarko -- I can't say about others, but for me the key missing features in the wiki are: * Wiki-style links and organization * Easy navigable URLs * More compact and usable layout All wikis I have used in the past use embedded WikiStyleTags to create links to other pages on the wiki, or even cre

[web2py:21031] Re: Validation in Custom Form using crud

I think this is not really what you want, but could help: you can validate data (using validators) if you use helpers to create your forms. Creating forms with helpers is more flexible than with Crud. Try something like this: def test(): f = FORM('Is web2py cool? Why?', SELECT(OPT
