Hi everyone, I'm new to web2py but learning fast, and building an online clients and tasks database for work, with some extra functionality. (similar to a CRM app...)
When I restrict the values in a table field by assigning IS_IN_SET directly, it works (a proper itemized dropdown list appears in the new records form): in db.py: TASK_TYPES = ('Call', 'Meet', 'Email') db.tasks.task_type.requires=IS_IN_SET(TASK_TYPES) BUT .... when I place the same list in appconfig.ini and call it in db.py, the list is no longer 3 ordered choices, but a vertical list made of all the characters plus brackets and quote marks... in appconfig.ini: [dropdown_choices] tasks = ('Call', 'Meet', 'Email') in db.py: db.tasks.task_type.requires=IS_IN_SET(myconf.take('dropdown_choices.tasks')) tried converting it to a list with ...=list(......) but the result is the same. what am I doing wrong? thanks in advance!
