ids = [1, 2, 3]
redirect(URL(c='test', f='side_by_side', args=(request.args(0)),
vars=dict(ids=ids)))
ids = request.vars.ids
Work as well...
The url look like that :
test/side_by_side/table?ids=1&ids=2&ids=3
I have use session.ids before, but I need to pass a list of id by the url
in order to not have to write a big infrastructure to store each "report"
constructed by user... Having everything in the url let call the same
report again and again (constructed once by selecting the differents
records with a form that than redirect on the url of the report). Then the
only thing I have to manage is a bunch of links that user can keep in a
table of report or something. The user as only to copy url and send it by
email to colleague...
