Thanks for your reply. I am definitely missing something. > appadmin and crud.update are ok (they are fine also in my environment). > SQLFORM.factory(db.person) is fine too. I don't get when you say "when I > submit the update".... SQLFORM.factory has no database interactions. >
I use SQLFORM.factory(...) to build an update form which updates 6 tables. A table node, depending on a variable a table organization, person or hub, etc. Since the form is being build dynamically, I have to pre-populate its fields using form.vars.field=node.field etc. This is what introduced the problem: form.vars.birthday=row.birthday. It should be: form.vars.birthday=row.birthday.strftime('%d-%m-%Y') Kind regards, Annet. --
