not sure why you think it doesn't work; it should work just fine:
x = request.args[0]
y = request.args[1]
or, alternately
myargs = request.args
print len( myargs )
x = myargs[0]
y = myargs[1]

suggest you save the request items of interest in a variable; also, get
accustomed to trying things like this out in a command line shell (if you
have ipython, it will be used, and you will at least have command completion
with the TAB key):
python web2py.py -S myapp -M
Now you can see what that kind of select will return, and work out what you
need in there.
