It is not an ajax "validator", it is jQuery code introduced by web2py_ajax.html using $('input.double').attr('onkeyup', ... ). Which is why you need to change the class, as you said, to prevent jQuery from modifying your field. The easiest way is using a widget, before calling SQLFORM: db.your_table.your_double.widget= lambda field, value: INPUT(_type='text', _id='%s_%s' %(field._tablename, field.name), _class='mydouble', _name=field.name, value='' if not value else str(value), requires=field.requires) > > In the meantime, I am using a manually-created FORM to get by. > > -- Joe B. > > On Apr 22, 10:49 pm, Álvaro Justen [Turicas] <alvarojus...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > > -- > > Álvaro Justen > > Peta5 - Telecomunicações e Software Livre > > 21 3021-6001 / 9898-0141 > > http://www.peta5.com.br/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py Web Framework" group.
