[web2py] Subclass FORM?

[Toby Shepard]

I tried doing this:


def index():

    doc = Document()

    return doc

class Document(FORM):

    def __init__(self):
        super(Document, self).__init__(self)
        self.append('A message')



But when I run it I get this huge ticket with
an error about recursion.  I wouldn't have thought
there would be any difference then just making
the FORM() and appending text to it, which works.

Thanks!
