you could use links something like def get_stuff(user_id): # fetch the items for that user # iterate through items, intersperse with BR() # return the whole mess in a SPAN()
# Caveat: not sure of following syntax and too lazy to look it up in manual # Just look in the writeup for smartgrid links = [{'head': 'Purchases', 'body': lambda value, row: get_stuff(value)}] form = SQLFORM.smartgrid(....links = links....)
