Hi Massimo

I have a problem here. One of my functions work perfectly in Version
1.47 (2008-10-27 12:36:17) but failed in Version 1.56.2 (2009-02-08
21:49:34) with this error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "D:\web2py\gluon\restricted.py", line 98, in restricted
    exec ccode in environment
  File "D:/web2py/applications/cynote/controllers/cynote.py", line
145, in <module>
  File "D:\web2py\gluon\globals.py", line 74, in <lambda>
    self._caller = lambda f: f()
  File "D:/web2py/applications/cynote/controllers/cynote.py", line 26,
in show
    if comments.accepts(request.vars,session):
  File "D:\web2py\gluon\sqlhtml.py", line 422, in accepts
    raise SyntaxError, 'user is tampering with form'
SyntaxError: user is tampering with form

A snipplet of the model is this:

cynotedb.define_table('entry',
                SQLField('title'),
                SQLField('file','upload'),
                SQLField('filename'),
                SQLField('keywords',length=256),
                SQLField('notebook',cynotedb.notebook),
                SQLField('datetime','datetime',default=now),
                SQLField('description','text'))

#the comment table
#entry_id link to entry table
cynotedb.define_table('comment',
                SQLField('author'),
                SQLField('file','upload'),
                SQLField('filename'),
                SQLField('body', 'text'),
                SQLField('datetime','datetime',default=now),
                SQLField('entry_id',cynotedb.entry))

The code in question is this:

def show():
    # called to show one entry and its linked comments based on
    # the entry.id
    # called by TOC in order to provide an entry.id
    id=request.vars.id
    entries=cynotedb(cynotedb.entry.id==id).select()
    # to prevent showing a 'None' (null) entry
    if not len(entries): redirect(URL(r=request,f='entries'))
    # form to post new comments
    comments=SQLFORM(cynotedb.comment,fields=['author','body'])
    # give entry.id for comment output
    comments.vars.entry_id = id;
    # return the comment that is listed with the entry id
    records=cynotedb(cynotedb.comment.entry_id==id)\
            .select(orderby=cynotedb.comment.entry_id)
    # show a flash when comment is posted
    if comments.accepts(request.vars,session):
         response.flash = "comment posted"
    return dict(entry=entries[0],comments=comments,records=records)

The error seems to lie at
if comments.accepts(request.vars,session):
         response.flash = "comment posted"

When I comment out these Version 1.56.2 (2009-02-08 21:49:34), the
function works but I am not able to add new comments into
cynotedb.comment table.

I think this error seems to be induced by a new version of web2py.
My reasons being:

1. When I run a older developmental version of my application (cynote)
in Version 1.47, it works nicely - Not in Version 1.56.2

2. When I copy and pasted the older version into my application in
web2py Version 1.56.2 (trying to rule out indentation and invisible
characters error), it failed.

3. When I copied the entire application directory into web2py Version
1.47, it works fine.

Hence, the only reason that I cannot rule out is the difference in
web2py versions.

Please advice.

Thanks
Maurice Ling
