Is there any way to use a variable for a db table name as part of a query?
 
Say if I have multiple tables with a field called "name" could I create a 
function such as this?
 
                                                                            
 def query_db(tbl, my_name):                                               
                  
    for row in db(db.tbl.name==my_name).select():                           
                                      
        [code here]                                                         
             
 
 
So that calling query_db('example', 'bob') would have it query 
db(db.example.name=='bob')
 
As written it does not work, but is there some other syntax I could use to 
carry out what I want?
