that's what I thought too a Seb. alas, although my web2py controller function is called I can find no data from the Javascript (in request/vars or request/get_vars).
I can return numbers (integers or numbers) but lists and dicts are not parsed and FF FireBug Net/XHR displays Failed to load source for: http://127.0.0.1:8000/init/default/get_buses Very frustrating. I can't find anyone who's using web2py with either spine or backbone (backbone inspired spine).
