Hello everyone,
I'm developing a simple database app locally with SQLite. Everything
works great. When I push to the server, it's using Postgres and when I
do this:

...
def update():
        recordId = request.vars.id
        updatedField = request.vars.updatedField
        updatedData = request.vars.updatedData

        row = (db.part.id == recordId)
        if updatedField == 'part_Number':
                db(row).update(part_Number = updatedData)
...

The row updates fine, but isn't visible with a:

db().select(db.part.ALL)

I can go into web2py's database admin and point directly to a row's ID
and it pulls up fine, it just doesn't show up with the rest of the
rows on a SELECT ALL. I can also use pgAdmin3 (postgres admin tool for
Mac) and see the data fine. I've also tried doing a:

db.part[recordId].update_record(part_Number = updatedData)

But it has the same effect. So my questions are as follows:
1) What am I doing wrong with the above?
2) What's the difference between an update and an update_record?
3) With the above example, is there anyway I can use a variable for a
field name? So instead of having a bunch of if's and elif's to go
through the field, I could do a:
db(row).update(updatedField = updatedData)

Thanks!
