In my app I have this: cf = db.contacts.fields form = FORM("Field:",SELECT(cf, _name="field", requires = IS_IN_SET( cf ), _value="last_name"), "(Exact match?)", INPUT( _type="checkbox", _name = 'exact', _value = True), "Search for (required):", INPUT( _type="text", _name= 'search', requires = IS_NOT_EMPTY() ), INPUT( _type="submit", _value="SEARCH"))
which is intended to generate a generic search form. And, in fact, it does. I have two problems with giving the for, default values though. I want the "field" field to have "last_name" selected by default. It does, but only after the first submission of the form - when the page is first loaded, the first field (id) is selected. And I can't seem to set a default value for the checkboc - I want it selected by default - despite trying several possibilities, like _default and so on. Can't seem to find this in the documentation. How is it properly done? thanks Daniel -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
