web2py loads models in alphabetic order. So you need to make sure your basic definition comes prior to your "another .py file". For example, "models/0_setting.py" is kind of de facto convention. However, I would recommend you to put your basic things inside modules/ whatever.py, this way you might have more flexibility. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py Web Framework" group.
