Thanks for reply. Well, this issue that I am observing is not specific to my system only, I tried it on two other systems in IE8 and all of them were having the same issue. Anyways, I was able to get the exact width in IE, if I added a width of 400px to TD element containing the SELECT. So,

Re: [web2py] Re: SQLForm Factory

Thanks for the tip. I did set one field to not be readable like this: Field('alternatepid', label='Alternate PID', readable=False), but it still shows on my form. Should'nt be there should it? Thanks. On Mon, Jun 24, 2013 at 1:57 PM, Anthony wrote: > db.patient(fields=['first_name']) > > N

Re: [web2py] Re: SQLForm Factory

db.patient(fields=['first_name']) No, the above isn't web2py syntax -- don't know where you saw that. As I mentioned, to control which fields are shown, you can set the readable and writable attributes of the fields (check the book), or you can list individual fields instead of entire tables:
