Take a look at http://mdp.cti.depaul.edu/examples/default/api and http://mdp.cti.depaul.edu/examples/static/epydoc/index.html (look for function URL in gluon.html) Notice that request holds a=application and c=controller; you can override those one by one, so in your example r=request is completely unneeded since you are not using ANY part of what it provides to URL (not even the application); I think what you intended to write is something like: {{=A('go to xyz page',_href=URL(a='admin', c='default', f='design' args=['myapp']))}} If, for example, you wanted to do the same in the current app, you could write this in this way, and override the controller and function parts of the request: {{=A('go to xyz page',_href=URL(r=request, c='my_design_stuff', f='design' args=['myapp']))}} Does this help clarify?
