I have a situation where I need to adjust an SQLFORM field to be non-editable. I can do that with .writable = False, but that seems to also prevents database I/O for that field. What I'm trying to do is set a default that cannot be changed.
Is there a way to set an SQLFORM field so that it appears as a label on the form itself, but is still writable for the database? For reference, I'm doing this with a field in the form returned by auth.register, so I cannot insert code between the form creation and the accepts call. I believe I'm restricted to working with the model before calling auth.register, or by using custom forms. Jay
