Ok. Found the solution: just set a representation for the field, before creating the form: db.contact.account_id.represent=lambda id: SPAN(db.contact[id].account_id.name) form=crud.update(db.contact,contact) What set me off is that non-foreign key fields do not need this. They just render as labels if they are set as writable=False. Miguel -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
