It depends on how you want your functions to be accessed. As long as a given function has a specific named view associated with it, then you don't need a generic view at all. For example, if you have function 'myfunc' in /controllers/default.py, as long as you have a /views/default/myfunc.html view, you don't need a generic view for that function. Generic views are only used/needed when you don't have a specific view for a function. There's some explanation near the end of this book section: http://web2py.com/book/default/chapter/03#Say-Hello There is more detailed discussion in the context of services (JSON, XML): http://web2py.com/book/default/chapter/09#Generic-Views Anthony
