I'm new to web2py and the I did this previously was with javascript
but I was hoping to avoid that this go around.

In my database table I have a single field something like this below:

db.define_table('foo',
   Field('height', 'double'),

In the controller/view I need to be able to translate that so when
viewing a record they see:
Feet, Inches, and Fractions of a Inch.

When adding a record it would need to be a text field for feet and
drop down lists for inches and fractions of a inch.

I know how to do that in javascript, but I don't like relying on
javascript if possible.  I'm hoping there is a way to do this in the
controller or model.

Thanks for any suggestions.
