This should be an easy one, but I can't figure it out. I am using the
tagging implementation from plugin_wiki: Two tables (tag and link)
store the info about tags on records in a third table (e.g. "movies").
db.tag has Fields id and name=str
db.link has fields id, tagID=int and movieID=int

Now if a user clicks on a tag in the tag-cloud, what is a good query
to find all movies with that tag?
Can I do that with standard queries and .select() or do I need to use
executesql?


movies_with_activeTag=db((db.link.tagID==id_of_activeTag)&(db.movies.id==db.link.movieID)).select()

was something I came up with (I have about zero experience with the
query syntax) but it gives strange recursion errors:
...
File "c:\\web2py\gluon\dal.py", line 3456, in __allocate
    raise RuntimeError, "Using a recursive select but encountered a
broken reference"
RuntimeError: Using a recursive select but encountered a broken
reference

If I need the SQL execution, how can I convert its output to a rows
object?
sqlite is the database
Thanks in advance any help is welcome.
