[web2py] IS_HTTP_URL() with user:password

IS_URL() fails when a userinfo field is present in the URL. Examples: http://u...@domain.com http://user:passw...@domain.com See http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986 3.2.1. (The password portion is deprecated as insecure, but it's still legal.) Also http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc239

[web2py] New & tentative Spanish web site

In the recently created spanish mailing list, emerged the need of a spanish web site for documentation. Some proposed a wiki (moin), Denes started to work on it but I already had a public web2py site installed, so adding the wiki seemed an easier option. Thanks to that web2py is so easy :), after

Nice idea, but it doesn't work. The flash does not have enough time to show up and then the whole page is refreshed. On Feb6, 1:47am, mdipierro wrote: > > > > > On Feb 5, 8:34 am, Tomas Pelka wrote: > > > > > I was thinking about it a lot and I hope that I could use flash right > > from my fo
