Yes. This is a classic example of multi select. Another work around is
using multiselect widget.
db.define_table('mytable',
Field('name', type='list:string',requires=IS_IN_SET
(('True','False', 'Neither','True','False', 'Neither','True','False',
'Neither','True','False', 'Neither','True','False',
'Neither','True','False', 'Neither','True','False',
'Neither','True','False', 'Neither'), multiple=True),
widget=lambda field, value:
SQLFORM.widgets.multiple.widget(field, value, size=2, style='divs',
label=True)))
size = 2 controls the size of the window.
But I agree and thank you.
