I'm taking the liberty of extending this topic with a (somewhat)
related question. Hope that's all right.

Is it possible to use SQLFORM to create a dropdown entry with the
following properties?
1. Display a list of unique items in a given field AND
2. Accept new items typed into the entry box.


Background:
My application is a control interface that runs on a PDA (N8x0 at this
time, perhaps iPhone later). Web2py runs on the PDA serving on
localhost;  user(s) access the application on the PDA's browser.  The
users are the engineers and techs testing the system in the field
(literally out-of-doors). Since the keyboards on these devices are
extremely inconvenient especially in bright sunlight, the DRY
principle applies to the user's experience even more than to the
programmer! I want to avoid having them enter the same information
twice.

Thanks,
Mike
