Found the problem and it's a complete newbie mistake. Somewhere along the
way I had deleted the
{{extend 'layout.html'}}
from the view. What I really needed was the ajax (which is included in
layout.html) , i.e.
{{include 'web2py_ajax.html'}}
Sorry, I did not realize this since I am new to web2py and have mostly been
tinkering around with back-end code without caring about the looks until
now. I had cleared out my default/index.html thinking I was only getting
rid of the default welcome screen look/text without realizing I needed that
part.
