Hi, I have web2py return a selection from a controller function i.e. return dict(beats=beats) which I am iterating on a page using:
I have a jquery Modal dialog which is shown after this click function for each "b": {{for b in beats:}} $('#msemp_{{=b.uuid}}').click(function() { $('#dialog_{{=b.uuid}}').dialog({"autoOpen": "false", "width": "600px"}); $('#dialog_{{=b.uuid}}').dialog('open'); {{pass}} then in body: {{for b in beats:}} <div>somestuff<div class="msemp_{{=b.uuid}}"></div></div> {{pass}} I have in the jquery modal dialog form using the slider widget. <div id="dialog_{{=b.uuid}}" style="display: none;" title="Send Empathy To This Person"> {{def give_emp(val): return DIV( form.custom.begin, DIV(form.custom.widget.q), DIV(form.custom.submit), form.custom.end ) pass }} {{=give_emp()}} <p style="color:white;">just to test uuid value: {{=b.uuid}}</p> <p style="color:white;">just to test user_id value: {{=b.user_id}}</ p> </div> I want to be able to pass values from b.??? (ie. b.user_id) to the jquery modal dialog. I have tried web2py ajax function using a callback function from controller but I couldn't get it working and also maybe this would involve too many server requests (GAE?). I have also tried callback functions in jquery but couldn't get it to work. Maybe there is a simpler approach? Any help /ideas most appreciated.
