There are numerous simple ways to get to what the issue is:

- set a breakpoint at this line and inspect variables;  you could do this
with winpdb, or grab an evaluation copy of WingIDE (there are other ways
too);

- run a web2py shell, and try this select by hand, to convince yourself that
it works (it won't tell you if your view is passing the right things into
the function, but it will eliminate one question and help you focus on the
right place):

    python web2py.py -S myapp -M
