Ok, your form is not over auth_user... Sorry fast reading does that... You can use session then...
session.volunteer_id = db.table(row_id).volunteer_id Or You can passe it as request vars : URL(..., vars=dict(volunteer_id=db.table(row_id).volunteer_id)) Though, I am not sure you will be able to access it in the latter case since request.vars.volunteer_id... But I remember had retrieve request.vars passed into form vars when the name of the vars was exactly the same which was causing issue in some circonstances, so I avoid passing the value with the same name. There is also post_vars that could be use...
