Okay,
Looking at this deeper, I there will be a complete form (one covering
one db table; then another covering a completely different database
table. Let me see if I got this right.
Can this implementation idea work for that case?

make sure they all have defaults.
def wizard():
fields=[['field1'], # first page
['field2','field3'], # second page
['field4']] # third page
record_id =int(request.args(0) or 0)
page=int(request.args(1) or 0)
form = SQLFORM(db.mytable,record_id,fields=fields[page])
if form.accepts(request.vars,session):
if page<len(fields):
redirect(r=request,args=(form.vars.id,page+1))
else: redirect(r=request,f='form_completed'))
return dict(form=form, page=page)
I did not try it. May need some debugging.

Hey,
I need to implement a "wizard" style form. (things will exist on
different screens; each "step" or page will post to the next page and
have those values stored and used in the next step.
Now here's the problem: there's seems to be very few examples in
developing something like this in web2py... Does anybody know either
of an app that does this that I can look at for examples or perhaps a
strategy of implementing this?
