I am working on a form which inserts data into five different tables.
To prevent the user from filling in the entire form and after form
submission finding that the object already exists, I would like to
check the existence of an object before hand based on two form fields.
These are the relevant bits of the form:
def create_form():
form=SQLFORM.factory(
Field(...),
Field(...))
...
form[0][2][2].insert(0,A('already in
database?',_onmouseover="this.style.cursor='pointer';",\
_onclick="javascript:details('%s')"%URL(r=request,f='retrieve',args=[document.getElementById(kvk_number).value,
\
document.getElementById(subdossiernumber).value])))
...
if form.accepts(request.vars,session):
...
elif form.errors:
...
return dict(form=form)
... args=...
should get the values entered in the fields named kvk_number and
subdossiernumber, the code above doesn't work, what is the correct
syntax to get these values and pass them as arguments to the retrieve
function?
Kind regards,
Annet.
