I want to store images in the database and I'm having trouble with
my SQLFORM. I've copied the example from the manual but find that

Apologies in advance if it's a typo.

I was involved in the older thread and went ahead used the logging
module and haven't had any problems logging to file and to MySQL. I
did a bit more research and think it's thread safe. But I haven't had
many concurrent users so YMMV.

If the server and user are in different time zones I don't believe

Changing your widget to the following will change the way the time
appears in forms:

Apologies, my formatting of the code made it unreadable. Reposting the

value = ''

Session data is normally stored on disk in the "sessions" folder in
python pickle format - only the session id is transferred over the
network connection between the client and the server. (I say

the database, though this has to b

I wanted to have a field on an SQLFORM that behaved like IS_IN_DB

Ah, thought there must be an existing way of doing it but I didn't
realise you could use 'labels=' with IS_IN_SET :-)

I'd like a bit more understanding about how web2py handles cookies and

This was my point of my not-understanding about the expiry.

1. One way is to use the routes.py script in the web2py directory to
rewrite URLs, assuming you are using web2py's built in web server.
There are instructions in the script. Ask here again if you're not

2. All functions are exposed in controllers except:

I made a change to one of my models to increase
the size of a VARCHAR field from 64 to 138. I'm

had the same problem with web2py 1.55.
The SQL shown in sql.log is:

Yes, this resulted in a migrated table with
the new field having the correct size and
no errors. (obviously I lost the data in the
field).
I can't see how the migrate commands written
in sql.log are different from when I hand-
