Got a little embarrassment here.
In an earlier post I wrote something incorrect, as follows:
# even more
# for those times when the grid default form isn't sufficient
form = SQLFORM(db.sometable, .....)
if form.accepts(...) #old method, I know
yada
yada
return dict(form=form)
grid returns a div with the SQLFORM as the second element. Therefore
the code should be:
if form[1].accepts(...)
yada
blah
Sorry if I misled anyone.
