Okay thank you! P.S. I'm working with Sahana Py (now referred to as Sahana Eden)

Yes. The idea is to user request.args(0) to decide the page of the
wizard and the relative form.

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?

db.define_table('mytable',

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?
