Hi there,

I am very new to web2py, i posted 1 question here a week ago, but never got 
reply (if anyone sees my post, please let me know if I missed anything), I 
am trying luck with another question now.
I have a customer table, an invoice table and an item table. I simplified 
them below:

db.define_table('customer', Field('company_name', requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()), 
auth.signature, format='%(company_name)s')
db.define_table('invoice', Field('customer', 'reference 
customer'), Field('project_name', requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()))
db.define_table('item', Field('invoice', 'reference invoice', 
 writable=False), Field('description'), Field('unit_price', 'double'))

When I used smartgrid without specifying the constraints below, the 
linked_tables 'Items' worked correctly (i.e. i clicked Items link, it 
showed me all the items belongs to that particular invoice), but obviously 
i could not select a particular set of invoices based on a customer id. 
when I added the constraints, i could select the particular invoices based 
on the given customer id, but the linked_tables 'Items' broke with this 
error message - Query Not Supported: invalid literal for long() with base 
10: 'item'. The URL got redirected from 
http://localhost:8000/connect28/accounting/view_invoices/invoice/item.invoice/10?_signature=0653b123ba6f4b43b82c48d49516af9c772b1496
 
to http://localhost:8000/connect28/accounting/view_invoices/item. Any help 
and pointers is much appreciated.

def view_invoices():
    customer_id = request.args(0)
    if customer_id:
        invoice_query=db.invoice.customer==customer_id
    else:
        invoice_query=db.invoice.customer!=None 
    constraints=dict(invoice=invoice_query)
    db.item.invoice.writable=False #avoid invoice # from any particular row 
in item table get overwritten
    invoice_grid = SQLFORM.smartgrid(db.invoice, constraints=constraints)
    return locals()
