auth works inspecting request.args and generating the corresponding form.
in a "default" setup, you have auth defined into def user(), so the url is
/app/default/user/login
the function (connected to the view) is *user*, not *login*. *login* is the
first request.args (*request.args(0)*)
It's perfectly fine that if you put return dict(form=auth()) inside def
handle() it works only when accessed as
/app/default/handle/login
If you want /app/default/handle to return just the login form, you should
return
form=auth.login()
directly (and have something else handling all other auth functions like
register, logout, retrieve_username, etc etc etc)
