I have just started looking at using web2py to build a web application,
as it seems like the right balance between capability and simplicity for me.
While I have found the example apps and docs good, there is one glaring
omission - how to do updates/edits in forms. For example I worked
through the 'dogs' example app - nice and clear....but what I'd like to
see is a section detailing how to:
- search for a dog (say by name)
- update/edit the various attributes for the dog concerned
I've been looking on the web for similar examples, and I've encountered
a bewildering collection of (incomplete) examples/suggestions discussing
sqlform.grid, crud.search etc but no nice simple (and *complete*) way
showing how this is supposed to be done within this framework. Any
suggestions would be welcome (using the dogs app would be great as I
could check and comment easily...and contribute back once a working
example is sorted out)!
Thanks
Mark
