When I connect to my table through python web2py.py -S myapp -M

and type:

users_list = db(db.users_id!=None).select()

for row in users:
 print row.address

it shows truncated addresses in a list the first and last character are 
missing.

When I click on the record in the grid, it shows the record spread out 
across 10 fields within the list for example: 123 home st. looks like
1
2
3

h
o
m
e

s
t
