See below. The age field is read only and the form is already created when
you do the accept. So to get the updated age I recreate the form with the
new data. It does work though I think it would have been neater to have the
age as a compute field in the model.
def onvalidation(form):
""" calculates fields before update """
form.vars.age=calc.age(form.vars.date_of_birth)
def edit():
customer=db.customer[request.args(0)]
form = SQLFORM(db.customer, customer)
if form.process(onvalidation=onvalidation).accepted:
# recreate form with calculated fields
customer=db.customer[request.args(0)]
form = SQLFORM(db.customer, customer)
