I tried to import a CSV file  but all the values are None.

This is what I did:

def index():
    if request.vars.csvfile != None:
        table = db[request.vars.table]
        file = request.vars.csvfile.file
        table.import_from_csv_file(file)
    return dict()

My tables look like this:

db.define_table('animation',
    Field('activity', widget=SQLFORM.widgets.radio.widget, 
requires=IS_IN_SET({'Co-prod', 'Buyer','Sales', 'Producer', 'Director'})), 
Field('business', widget=SQLFORM.widgets.radio.widget, 
requires=IS_IN_SET({'Distribution', 'Broadcaster','Production', 'Internet', 
'Financing', 'MNO', 'Press'})), Field('company', 'string', 
requires=[IS_NOT_EMPTY()]), Field('country', requires=[IS_NOT_EMPTY()]), 
Field('email', requires=[IS_NOT_EMPTY(), IS_EMAIL()]), Field('first_name', 
'string',requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()), Field('last_name', 
'string',requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()), Field('position_title', 
'string',requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()), Field('website', 
'string',requires=[IS_NOT_EMPTY(), IS_URL]), Field('date_made', 'datetime', 
default = request.now, writable=False, readable=False, requires = 
IS_DATE(format=('%d-%m-%Y'))))

My view:
{{extend 'layout.html'}}
{{=FORM(INPUT(_type='file',_name='csvfile'),INPUT(_type='hidden',_value='animation',_name='table'),INPUT(_type='submit',_value='Upload'))}}

The CSV file has the same headers as the table names. The CSV is imported, 
the length of the rows in the database are the same as in the CSV file but 
the records are all None.
What I want to do is to be able to import CSV files to this db as well as 
input values manually using a form. This is why I am using a radio.widget.
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

Joe
