These are hidden fields used by web2py to process submitted forms. _next is used by Auth to store the URL originally requested before a redirect to the login page -- Auth will redirect back to that URL after successful login. _formname stores the name of the form so web2py knows which form to process (necessary when there is more than one form on a page). _formkey is a unique key associated with a particular instance of a form and is also stored in the user session -- upon submission, the keys must match (this is to prevent double form submission and to protect against cross site request forgery attacks).
