Some people here seem to use the "multiple forms per page" thing, and then jquery/ajax to submit each part. I think I've even seen something similar discussed here to prepare an autocomplete of one form by popping another. You can do much of it in javascript if the list of choices doesn't change much. You still have to validate the selection on the server side, but making the selection can be primarily a client activity, cutting down on total transit time. /dps -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
