What do you mean by needing to do that "in the view"? Do you mean in the
browser? If so, that's not the same thing as "in the view". In web2py, the
view is a special template that can include Python code. The view is
executed on the server, and the output of that execution is what is sent to
the browser. The browser does not see any of the Python code (i.e., none of
the {{...}} end up in the browser).
is there a solution without using jquery?

It's still not clear what you are doing. What are param1 and param2? Are
they determined dynamically within the browser? If so, you'll need
Javascript to build the URL in the browser (it doesn't have to be jQuery
specifically, but some form of Javascript). If param1 and param2 are known
on the server at the time the page is being constructed by web2py, then you
can simply include them as args in the call to the URL() function.
