[web2py] Re: Back link contains unexpected value

The grid creates the back button links based on the URL of the grid action itself, but it stores the referrer URL in session._web2py_grid_referrer_web2py_grid (if you use a custom formname for the grid, that last "web2py_grid" is replaced with the formname). So, in your grid action, before crea

[web2py] Re: Clarification on variables in views

It seems like you are doing some complex things with the views. That is fine, but personally I find this: 1. In MVC it is more recommended to collect and prepare all your data in the controller and then pass all that to the view when it is ready. 2. In that way you can make sure that all the v

It seems that you already know how to check whether variables exist, so you have already answered the question. However, I think the entire premise of the question seems strange. If you are the developer you should know what variables you are going to be using in the view? So, just make sur
