My goal is the following :
If I make a SQL/CRUD form for a person object,
then the third attribute to set is the size.
I have to choose the value from a selection list.
(IS_IN_DB(db,'size.name'))
In the selection list, I can't get the translated values.
Unfortunately, that is exactly what I want.
Translating the values from the table "list", is not a problem.
For instance with the following function, I can show the translated value
on a page.
rows=db(db.size.id>0).select()
for row in rows:
content=T('row.name')
return content
But how can I get the translated values in the selection list ?
Thanks for your help
