Forget the precedent email... I think I found how, it didn't work the first
time I try, so I just put everything into string, maybe I had problem with
a comma...
inputs_list = []
for a in field1_names_dict:
inputs_list.append(Field(field1_names_dict[a]['field1_name']+'_f1',
type='boolean', widget=SQLFORM.widgets.checkboxes.widget,
requires=IS_EMPTY_OR(IS_IN_SET([assay_names_dict[a]['field1_name_ui']]))))
inputs_list.append(Field(field1_names_dict[a]['field1_name']+'_f2',
db.ref_tab1, requires = IS_EMPTY_OR(IS_IN_DB(db,'ref_tab1.id
','%(REPRESENTFIELD)s'))))
inputs_list.append(Field(field1_names_dict[a]['field1_name']+'_f3',
db.ref_tab2, requires = IS_EMPTY_OR(IS_IN_DB(db,'ref_tab2.id
','%(REPRESENTFIELD)s'))))
I I just have to add the formstyle in the SQLFORM.factory call :
form = SQLFORM.factory(*inputs_list, formstyle='divs')
