Depends on the model. I will assume
db.define_table('org',Field('name'))
db.define_table('eventtype,Field('org',db.org),Field('name'))
In this case
def edit():
org_id, eventtype_id=request.args(0),request.args(1)
eventtype==db.eventtype(eventtype_id,org=org_id) or
redirect(URL(...))
I do not understand the Django example since it is not using the
ord_id information.
