I have gone one more step in trying to isolate the problem. Given the
existence of models/[menu.py, db.py] in the previous post, when
default-fail.py is copied to controllers/default.py, the sub-menus DO NOT
show up when hovered over.
However, when default-welcome209.py is copied to controllers/default.py,
the sub-menus DO INDEED show up when hovered over.
Here is default-fail.py
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
#ContactUs
def update_t_contactus00():
return dict(form=crud.update(db.t_contactus00, request.args(0)))
#Appointment
def update_t_appointment00():
return dict(form=crud.update(db.t_appointment00, request.args(0)))
indexMM = '''## Stock Forms for Web2py
### Background
While using the web2py App Wizard, I got frustrated at needing to define
the model for a
"Contact Us" form for the *90 millionth time*. So, i made a suggestion in
code.google/p/web2py
in Issue 982. **Massimo liked the idea and said, "If you have done work in
this direction feel free to post a patch."**

Thanks for the help.
