Thank you Massimo,
But
db.user.id.default = user.user.id
db.user.name.default = user.user.name
db.user.email.default = user.user.email
db.addr.city.default = user.addr.city
is the rigth way to preopulate a SQLFORM.factory form?????
Why not once the form is defined, can I do form.vars.title =
'something' for example????
Thanks
