Massimo, Thanks for the quick update. I installed trunk... hg clone https://code.google.com/p/web2py/ and tried the suggested code
def editarch2(): id = request.args(0) or 1 row=db.things(id) form=SQLFORM(db.things,row) if form.process(onaccept=auth.archive).accepted: response.flash='ok' return dict(form=form) And received the following error message: File "/home/xa21/web2py/applications/archtst/controllers/ default.py", line 91, in editarch2 if form.process(onaccept=auth.archive).accepted: File "/home/xa21/web2py/gluon/html.py", line 1947, in process self.validate(**kwargs) File "/home/xa21/web2py/gluon/html.py", line 1898, in validate if self.accepts(**kwargs): TypeError: accepts() got an unexpected keyword argument 'onaccept' Any comments?
