hello one and all, i setup in db.py:
db.define_table('blog', ... format = '%(title, blog_date)s') db.define_table('blog_items', Field('blog_id', db.blog, requires=IS_IN_DB(db, db.blog.id, '% (title)s'), writable=False, readable=False), ... format = '%(item_date)s') so blog is master to its detail blog_items, in a one to many relation, which will allow for greater detail and even comments from users. under the blog_items function, i have a crud.insert(db.blog_items) method and it displays the edit form and inserts the data almost perfectly. but it doesn't give the proper value of the blog_id field to point back to its master record. and upon reflection, how would it? how do i designation the db.blog_items.blog_id under the blog_items function so crud.create will insert the record properly and fill the blog_id field also? thank you in advance. lucas
