The web2py documentation indicates that a reference field has the following default validator: IS_IN_DB(db, table.field, format)
I suggest the default validator to be described as: IS_IN_DB(db, table._id, table._format) If you use any other field besides *table._id* in the validator, this causes errors when trying to insert a new row (e.g. via the admin interface) Maybe it is worth indicating that when -for whatever reason- you want to change the validator, you must refer back to the *id* and not to another field of the referring table? Or am I wrong in this reasoning? -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
