I've been working on this for a while now off and on and have, I believe, fixed the web2py gluon code bugs to correct this problem. I filed my fix here - https://github.com/web2py/web2py/issues/2483 <http://GitHub%20web2py%20issues>

Am I doing something wrong? Is this fixed in a later web2py version?
