this sounds very interesting, definitely a nice addition. Although I hope
the current SQLFORM will not be deprecated. Usually I prefer to create my
html forms server side. I use a function to extract all form elements so I
can create my forms more flexible, maybe this is useful for others:
def get_form_fields(form):
formfields = dict()
for c in form.elements('input, select, textarea'):
name = c.attributes['_id']
formfields['c_' + name] = c
for l in form.elements('label'):
name = l.attributes['_for']
formfields['l_' + name] = l
return dict(form=form,**formfields)
in the view I can access each field (input/label) individually, e.g.
<form>
<div>{{=l_first_name}} {{c_first_name}}</div>
<div>{{=l_last_name}} {{c_last_name}}</div>
</form>
