No but I found a work around. I know this is probably not the best way to do this but here is a way to do this without any javascript.
#Without styling gives the value numerically db.define_table('my_table', Field('name', 'string', requires=[IS_NOT_EMPTY()]), Field('Rating', widget=SQLFORM.widgets.radio.widget, requires=IS_IN_SET({1 : '☆', 2 : '☆☆', 3 : '☆☆☆', 4: '☆☆☆☆', 5: '☆☆☆☆☆'}))) #with styling gives the value horizontally but a string output I believe. db.define_table('my_table', Field('name', 'string', requires=[IS_NOT_EMPTY()]), Field('Rating', requires=IS_IN_SET ({1 : '☆', 2 : '☆☆', 3 : '☆☆☆', 4: '☆☆☆☆', 5: '☆☆☆☆☆'}, multiple=True), widget=lambda field, value: SQLFORM.widgets.radio.widget(field, value, style='divs', label=True, _class="horizontal"))) In my controller I have: def index(): form = SQLFORM(db.my_table) if form.process().accepted: response.flash = 'record inserted' return dict(form=form,Ratings = form.vars.Rating) View: {{extend 'layout.html'}} {{=form}} {{=Ratings}} <style> .web2py_radiowidget.horizontal { display: -ms-flexbox; display: -webkit-flex; display: flex; } .web2py_radiowidget.horizontal > div { margin-right: 3px; display: inline-block; color: Green; } </style> On Wednesday, January 27, 2016 at 6:13:10 PM UTC-5, Massimo Di Pierro wrote: > > did you put the script at the bottom of your html?
