Hi Billf, Ill try to have a go at answering :-)

1. Functions in controller are called in order in the web2py
controllers, so defining and calling , for example, a function called
def foo() before your index() action would be executed first

2. I think an appliance called "init" is alwas executed imediately as
default if it does not find the "welcome" appliance. I use it as a
starting point and re-directi to other appliances from there.


I hope I could help a bit
