I have a DAL table that contains an upload field. After a user fills in the 
form and selects a file via the "Choose File" button, I want to display the 
form the just filled out but not in an editable form. So I have a 
controller/view pair called "view_the_form"

In view_the_form.html I want to have a link so the user could download that 
previously 'uploaded' file. I can't seem to get a valid link.

I've been trying variations on the following:

{{=A(T("Brochure"), _href=URL('appname','uploads',row.brochure))}}


Where "row.brochure" is the selected row from my db.table and brochure is 
the name of the upload field. I can see that row.brochure is correct, it 
contains the name of the file that is in the uploads directory. But, when I 
click on that link in the browser, I get an "invalid function 
 (default/uploads)" message. The URL that is attempted is:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/uploads/sites.brochure.befaec15341b61de.6261636b67726f756e642e6a7067.jpg

Can someone help me figure out how to provide a link to an attachment in my 
db.table when viewing the table in a non-form format?

Thanks
Steven
