I'm hoping the list can "bridge the gap" between my controller and
widget. I have two problems:
A drop-down custom widget with options from a database field that
is filtered from sometinhg in the url
The widget "remembers" the last chosen option
So I have a widget much like
https://turbogears-dev.readthedocs.org/en/workshop/cookbook/sprox.html#creating-custom-dropdown-data
and it has ALL of the options from my table. By given the access of
http://localhost:8080/thing/42
my controller grabs the 42 so it knows item_id=42, so far so good.
My widget shows all genres, so far so good.
But I want my widget to only show the options filtered by this item, so
the database access would have filter(model.Genre.other_key == 42)
appended to it.
How do I get the item_id variable out of my controller into my widget?
Second problem, I select a genre and hit submit, I want that widget to
have the default of the one I selected instead of blank which is what it
does now. Again the controller "sees" the selection but its a matter of
letting the widget know.
