Currently I am displaying multiple forms on one page via iframes, each
calling the same controller. When only one form is displayed on the
page, the form submits properly and validates etc. When two forms are
displayed however, pressing submit merely refreshes the iframe. When I
hit submit a second time, then the form acts as it should. It's like
the form has to be "warmed up" before submitting. I imagine this has
something to do with how the hidden form fields like formkey and named
are stored in the session and checked later, but I do not understand
how they work enough to resolve this. Any ideas? The code for the form
controller and the controller that builds and displays the iframes is
below.
#controller of form displayed in the iframe
def buildPage():
content = []
appname = request.application
data = xmltools.getData(request.vars.code, appname)
template = xmltools.getTemplate(data.tag, appname)
for i in template:
if i.tag == "header":
content.append(H1(i.text))
elif i.tag == "label":
content.append(P(i.text))
elif i.tag == "database":
form = SQLFORM(db[i.text])
form.vars.form_id = request.vars.code
#form.vars.time = dt.datetime.now().strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:
%M:%S")
if form.accepts(request.vars, session):
response.flash='New Page entered'
elif form.errors:
response.flash='Check form for errors'
content.append(form)
else:
el = xmltools.findElement(data, name=i.tag)
if el is not None:
for j in el:
if j.tag == 'bulk_text':
text = xmltools.parseBulk(j)
for k in text:
content.extend([k, BR()])
elif j.tag == 'bulk_checkbox':
text = xmltools.parseBulk(j)
for k in text:
content.extend([INPUT
(_type='checkbox'),k,BR()])
else:
content.append(i.tag)
return response.render('default/form.html',dict(page=DIV
(*content)))
#code of the controller that builds and displays the iframes
def buildTabs():
if session.tabs is None:
session.tabs = []
if session.tabNames is None:
session.tabNames = 0
#if request.vars.code is not None:
name = session.tabNames
session.tabNames += 1
frame = IFRAME(_width='100%', _height='500px', _src=URL
(r=request,f='buildPage',vars=request.vars))
tab = DIV(frame, A('close', _href='#', _class='close'),
_name=name, _class='tab')
session.tabs.append({'tab':tab, 'name':name,
'form':request.vars.code})
content = DIV(_id = 'tabCont')
tabmenu = UL(_id='tabMenu')
content.append(tabmenu)
for i in session.tabs:
tabmenu.append(LI(A(i['form'], _href='#'), _name=i['name']))
content.append(i['tab'])
return content
