So, do you want to modify the layout of the add/edit forms, or just default in the COMPANY on an add?
this line: I see formargs, editargs, createargs, etc., but am having trouble finding examples (that I understand) of how to modify these forms and not recreate the wheel by making totally custom add/edit grid forms. ....makes me think you don't want to alter the layout. Looking for clarification. -Jim On Wednesday, January 29, 2014 11:13:27 AM UTC-6, A36_Marty wrote: > > > I've created a web2py grid of records based on the selection on the page. > i.e. a table COMPANY has many EMPLOYEES -- someone selects a given COMPANY > and a SQLFORM.grid of the related EMPLOYEES is shown. > > Question: How can I customize the web2py Add/Edit forms that appear when > the respective buttons are pushed on the Grid. > > More specifically, if one wishes to add an EMPLOYEE, I need to hide the > related COMPANY field on the add form, yet still fill in the value with > whatever COMPANY is currently selected. > > I see formargs, editargs, createargs, etc., but am having trouble finding > examples (that I understand) of how to modify these forms and not recreate > the wheel by making totally custom add/edit grid forms. > > Your responses are most appreciated.
