Getting the same issue... Could your suggestion of emtpy action in this case be improve with "/" action which will be parsed out by url processing?
Also, how do we suppose to manage form action with SQLFORM and .factory... I try add action='', also to form.process(action='', ...), nothing works.... Should I manipulate the DOM?
