Your form doesn't save because you do not seems to have create a full
functionning log_results form controller... You miss :
if form.process().accepted:
session.flash = 'form accepted'
redirect(URL('next'))
elif form.errors:
response.flash = 'form has errors'
else:
response.flash = 'please fill the form'
Here the doc :
http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/07/forms-and-validators#Forms-and-redirection
I am not sure what you are trying to do in your custom form though, kind of
want multiple input fields for points_set reference depending of the number
of n_sets??
I am not sure it would work that way... It may seems to work, but it surely
not work properly as each input you create will be "merge" as one insert at
the end in the database and depends what you try to achieve the inputed
values will not maybe represent the proper semantic you want as they me get
insert in differents order than you input them for instance...
I think you should try to explain us what you want to achieve in term of
functionality and not try to get technical answer as it may turns that
there is a better/proper way to do what you try to do, but without knowing
it we will provide wrong direction to you in our answer...
