Just use pure HTML as usual and (a) make sure the "name" attributes of form
fields correspond to the names of your database table fields, and (b) at
the end of the form, include the following:
{{=form.custom.end}}
in place of:
</form>
form.custom.end includes the two hidden fields used by web2py for form
processing as well as the closing form tag.
You might find, though, that you can handle most custom forms via the
method discussed here:
