I'm fairly sure this is indeed a bug.
The problem is bigger than CSS styling tho : when using "login_form.custom"
it seems that pretty much all of the standard web2py auth methods are
broken.
For example, I have a 'default.py' controller like this:
> def user():
> if request.args[0] == 'login':
> response.view = 'user/login.load'
> return dict(form=auth())
And a view 'user/login.load' like this:
> {{ =login_form.custom.begin }}
> <div class="clearfix form-login-sign-up_row1">
> {{ =login_form.custom.widget.email }}
> </div>
> <div class="clearfix form-login-sign-up_row2">
> {{ =login_form.custom.widget.password }}
> </div>
> <div class="clearfix form-login-sign-up_row3">
> <button class="btn btn-pink btn-30" type="submit">Connexion</button>
> <span class="password-forgotten"><a href="#password-forget-content"
> id="password-forget-action">Mot de passe oublié ?</a></span>
> </div>
> <p class="error clearfix" id="login-error"></p>
> {{ #=login_form.custom.end # buggy }}
> <div style="display:none;">
> <input name="_formname" type="hidden" value="login">
> </div>
> </form>
Now when I go to '/user/login' (or use the LOADed ajax component), my form
gets styled properly but validation doesn't trigger out of the box.
I put my login & pwd but nothing happens.
If I further customize my controller and add a form.process(...) method,
errors are displayed but validation still doesn't occur : my pwd gets
hashed but isn't validated against the auth_user table. It seems I must
recode the whole login process which is possible but unpythonic ("don't
repeat yourself")
On the other hand, if I just remove the "response.view = 'user/login.load'"
in my controller then my form is ugly but actually works...
Question is : how do I customize my login form, while still benefitting
from web2py's auth mechanisms ?
