Try this. It builds the form dynamically on the client and server so
you get to keep the benefits of SQLFORM (validation, etc):
def invite():
fields = [Field('email',requires=IS_EMAIL())]
for r in range(1, len(request.vars)):
if 'email%s' % str(r) in request.vars.keys():
fields.append(Field('email%s' %
str(r),requires=IS_EMAIL()))
form = SQLFORM.factory(table_name='invited',*fields)
submit = form.element('tr',_id='submit_record__row')
if form.accepts(request.vars,session,keepvalues=True):
request.flash = 'got it'
add_row = XML(form.element('tr'))
add_invite = INPUT(_type='button',_value='Add',
_onclick="var c = jQuery('input[type=\"text
\"]').size();"\
"jQuery('#%s').remove();var newrow =
'%s';"\
"newrow = newrow.replace(new
RegExp('email','g'),'email'+c.toString());"\
"jQuery('form:first
table').append(newrow + '%s');" % \
(submit['_id'],add_row,submit.xml()))
return dict(form=form,add_invite=add_invite)
