I'm sorry, I don't think I'm making myself clear. The issue is not with setting up a hierarchy nor with traversing the hierarchy. The issue is with data entry.
I want to enter the parent of my object from a pull-down list so that I don't accidentally select the wrong parent (by having to enter a meaningless number, oid, that corresponds to the parent object's record number). Instead, I want to enter the parent's name. However, if the object doesn't have a parent (root object), then the oid should be NULL or 0. How do I do this with validators? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py Web Framework" group.
