Hello. Coming over from the php world and I started a new job where we
use web2py and python. I'm trying to wrap my head around how it's
handling the paths to pages I create and I can't find my answers in
the docs. Probably I'm just missing it but I can't seem to figure it
out.
I've already created the layout.html and all the page.html files
located in views/default/page.html. I added
<code>
def page():
return dict()
</code>
in default.py. Now I'm trying various methods of adding anchors into
my html and everything returns an invalid error. For example, <a
href="/page">, <a href="~/page">, <a href={{URL...something}}> and
nothing seems to work. I'm running it from 127.1.1.8000. I'm at home
so I don't have my specific code here.
I'm actually the designer so I'm running the web2py OSX Lion app while
the developers are running Ubuntu and I've noticed a couple of things
are different based on that. Perhaps the way they were doing it needs
to be changed for the web2py app? Already some things that work in
Linux had to be changed to work on my Mac.
Also, what is the correct method to reference css and <img src> images
that are located in the static/images directory?
Thanks and I look forward to meeting more python developers and
getting to know web2py a bit more. I'm coming over from a background
in php, asp, and vb. I hate asp and vb and was forced into it where I
used to work and so I'm super excited to be working with python now
instead. The only good thing I took from asp was the C and that helps
with iOS so it wasn't all bad but...
I'll shut up now. Thanks for your help.
