[web2py] Re: Dynamic path built for a .svg file using uuid and passing the constructed path to view not working

[Rahul]

Hi Nico,
         Thanks! for your support - Here's how I was finally achieved it. 
Hardcoded the partial path  as below in the controller 
dynamicLinechartpath = ("""/ApplicationName/static/charts/""" + 
unique_filename )Enter code here...

In the view, you dont need to use the URL parameter - 
DLC is passed to the view which is nothing but dynamicLinechartpath 
variable. 

<!--  Line chart trial-->
                                <figure>
                                  <embed type="image/svg+xml" src="{{=DLC}}" 
/>
                                </figure>

This constructed the proper path in the view. 

Thanks, Rahul
