Re: [web2py] Easy to Understand SQLFORM.grid Custom Search
Dear villas, You said: I suppose that my proposal to use shlex would really apply to Peter's suggestion. I guess it might also be considered for use in the build_query function of sqlhtml.py. Shlex seems like a great way of using quotes to contain search phrases. I guess Google would be using something similar, and I'm sure that many of us use that feature all the time. I think you're right on all accounts. Maybe you should post an Enhancement request to Issues-web2py https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list for the build_query function of sqlhtml.py.

Re: [web2py] Easy to Understand SQLFORM.grid Custom Search
Dear peter, Thanks for the reply. I have used your post https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/web2py/sqlform.grid$20search/web2py/9_1ECdKHKUo/8OISg7o8OVIJin the past. Reading it and reading the gluon code actually helped me get a grid Custom Search WITH a search_widget specified in the grid function arguments. Thanks again, peter.
