The book says use code like this:
if request.vars.image!=None:
form.vars.image_filename = request.vars.image.filename
The code uses SQLFORM without defining download. When editing the record,
if the upload field has nothing in it, it is empty, not None. So this
exception gets raised:
request.vars.specification.filename
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'filename'
This code works.
If request.vars.image:
form.vars.specification_filename = request.vars.specification.filename
I can post model and controller if necessary.
