Yes, the form was generated outsite web2py and posted to the web2py controller "submit_site". My frustration is that in the controller, response.post_vars.submit_ip (and all form fields) have a value of None, but in the VIEW, they show correctly. WHY!?
It can't be blamed out the external form because the request.post_vars values show up correctly in the VIEW. How can I access them in the controller?
