I have a file uploads table and want to have a unique, random code for
each file as it is uploaded, so that my fields are id, file, code,
where 'code' is generated by a given function (say, for sake of
argument, randint(10,99)).
Is this something I can do in the model, or do I need a form
sion,
onvalidation=my_form_processing)
session.flash = 'record inserted'
redirect(request.url)
return dict(form=form)
Does the 'my_form_processing' function go in the model or the
controller?

I've been trying to get images into my css (both stored in static),
using URL() to pull the image, but because of the relative path from
the css to the image folder, and the fact that URL() returns a url
from the root(?), I'm having trouble with the syntax - is there a
standard way of doing this?
I'm adding files content to my database with the following code being
called onvalidation when the form is submitted. It really simply
generates a 6-digit alphanumeric code as an identifier for the file:
codes = db().select(db.products.code) # Grabs all the existing codes
from the database
while

I'm implementing PayPal on my site and would like to know the best
practice for securely storing my API credentials (user, pass,
signature).
Can this go in the database (say in a 'credentials' table), or should
it be elsewhere?
I'm trying to download (using urllib.urlretrieve) a remote file into
my application. It's a zip file containing an IP-to-country lookup

sanitised data into my ip-to
Should have tried harder myself - this works, but is there a better
way of doing it?

web2py is awesome.

Hi,
Bit of a noob question (sorry) but I'd like to add a page "/user/
combinedLogin" to my app, which combines the login and register forms,
but can't work it out. This:
if request.args(0)=="login":
=auth.login()
=auth.register()
works fine, but I'd like to expose a new url (/user/combin

I've noticed that Zencoding doesn't highlight code when editing .load
views for components, so I find myself doing all my editing in a .html
view, then copying the whole thing over into my .load view and
removing my {{extend}}.
Firstly it would be cool if zencoding could be made to treat .load

Would it be possible to add the ability to pass _class (in the same
way as with HTML Helpers) to the LOAD function, i.e.:
{{=LOAD('default', 'foo.load', ajax=True, _class="bar")}}
to generate

Or is there a better way?

Hi Massimo,
I've tried to install web2py on vps.net today and I'm getting the

Could you have a look at it please?

Don't worry, I was doing something extraordinarily stupid - the script
is fine.

It's ugly, but it seems to work ok for simple stuff...

I've got a few items of supplementary data about my users relating to
my e-commerce app, including current balance, total earnings, and
other bits and pieces. Because these are not directly related to
access control, I have a gut feeling that I should store them in a
different table and have a sing
Thanks Bruno - just out of interest, why do you prefer to use
db[auth.settings.table_user_name] over db.auth_user?

I'm using Janrain and I need to perform some actions post-
registration, but the usual auth callbacks don't seem to be working.
I'm running a very simple test function in my model:
db.define_table('user_data',Field('testfield'))
auth.settings.register_onvalidation.append(lambda
form:db.user_data.i
I'm having the same trouble with the following table definition (version
2.0.8)

db.define_table('promotions',

One of the awesome things about web2py is of course the built-in and

I'd like to asynchronously load one of a choice of components into a

relatively trivial to do this by changing the src on an iFrame which
embeds the component view, but this doesn't feel like a web2py-ish way
of doing things.

Is is possible to hold a record in session, something like:
id = db.transactions.insert()
session.transaction = db.transactions[id]
and directly update_record the session.transaction,
session.transaction.update_record(x=y)# This throws KeyError:
