FYI,
According to:
http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/2.6.html#new-improved-and-deprecated-modules
"The cgi module will now read variables from the query string of an
HTTP POST request. This makes it possible to use form actions with
URLs that include query strings such as
“/cgi-bin/add.py?category=1”. (Contributed by Alexandre Fiori and
Nubis; issue 1817.)"
Issue 1817: http://bugs.python.org/issue1817
This wrecks havoc with the appadmin.py when submitting the default
search query in 'database db select'. As it happens the form POSTs the
form values, and the URL happens to have a query string as well:
http://127.0.0.1:8000/images/appadmin/select/db?query=db.image.id%3E0
This results in 'request.vars.query' to become a list:
request.vars.query ----> <type 'list'>, value ---->
['db.image.id>0', 'db.image.id>0']
and Web2py to raise to following exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/gkoller/devel/web2py/gluon/restricted.py", line

exec ccode in environment
File "/Users/gkoller/devel/web2py/applications/images/
controllers/appadmin.py", line 270, in <module>

File "/Users/gkoller/devel/web2py/applications/images/
controllers/appadmin.py", line 157, in select
match = regex.match(request.vars.query)
TypeError: expected string or buffer
Not sure if the CGI module should have been changed in this way in
Python 2.6, or that Web2py should be modified to accomodate CGI's new
behaviour in Python 2.6.
Cheers, Guido
