Yes, that works: use request.vars.*. That was the option which I had
mentioned I may need to resort to, since *keepvalues *doesn't seem to
work for me.
This basically comes down to me creating a bunch of widgets; mirroring
the ones in web2py, where a widget would have logic, similar to the one
below, in it.
I need to figure out how to create a widget now. Am familiar with
creating jsp tag libraries, and dojo widgets.

<input type="text" class="form-control
{{if form.errors.country:}}invalidinput{{pass}}"
id="country" name="country"
value="{{=request.vars.country or
form.custom.inpval['country']}}"
placeholder=|"{{=form.custom.comment['country']}}"

Thanks for your inputs,
Kiran

Strange. How about
{{=request.vars.country or form.custom.inpval['country']}}

Massimo,
Yes, I did. Does not make a difference.
Thanks for the suggestion,
Kiran

Have you tried replacing

Hello All,
The *design *is: I have a custom form with the a
controller that inserts/updates a table. Tthe form
accepts data, and on successful submission of this
form, it stays on the same page (there are no
redirects to another page or form)
*Issue*: The problem am seeing is, when I update
values in the form, and submit it, the entered values
are lost when the form returns because of successful
submit, or due to errors. I have tried to use
keepvalues=True in the form.accepts() and
form.process() methods. No luck.
Details below.
Since the page am building has specific design needs,
I went with the option of a custom form, where I used
the form.custom.* options quite a bit. Therefore input
fields in the form look like this
|
<input type="text" class="form-control
{{if
form.errors.country:}}invalidinput{{pass}}"
id="country" name="country"
value="{{=form.custom.inpval['country']}}"
placeholder=|"{{=form.custom.comment['country']}}"
|
|
Also the controller is coded as below
|
x =db(db.x.x_id ==auth.user.id).select().first()
ifx:
form =SQLFORM(db.x,record=x)
else:
form =SQLFORM(db.x)
pass
# process the form
ifform.accepts(request.vars,formname='basicinfo_form',keepvalues=True):
response.flash ='Basic Information updated
successfully.'
elifform.errors:
response.flash ='The submitted form contains
errors. The fields in error are highlighted below.'
else:
response.flash ='Please fill the form.'
pass
returndict(form=form)
|
I was thinking that maybe I should capture the
request.vars and send it back to the view alongwith
the form.
If the request.vars.country value exists, then I use
that, instead of the form.custom.inpval['country'].
This only makes the view code a bit more verbose, but
if it solves the problem, then nothing like it.
Can anyone suggest what I could do to sort this out?
Thank you,
Kiran
P.S: I did take a look at all the conversations in the
forum about keepvalues. None of them seemed to help
me. Though I did find this one to be interesting and
am curious if this is sorted out already:
