This is probably simple but I can't find in the documentation or
recognize anything posted on this. I have a primary database including
fields which entries must be members of other databases - this is
enforced through the primary database definition and select lists
entry for the enforced membership fields: as recommended by the
current manual. I must display the information entered on existing and
later pages. Within the primary database the items entered through
selected drop down lists appear as index which mean nothing to an end
user. I can retrieve the indexed items by using something like in the
controller/function:
current_customer_name =
db(db.customer_names.id==names.index).select('name')
and is displayed in the view html with:
{{=current_customer_name))
I need the results to be displayed in this form (which it does not):
The Big Company
It displays this (which won't work for
me): NAME
------------------------------
The Big Company
I would appreciate any advice or pointers on where to look further.
thanks in advance.
