Ok, those are fair points. Any insight into my original question, about quotes being escaped when I don't want them to be?

If you are not planning to do database operations on the contents of file (like
indexing, joining, ordering, etc), the file contents will just clog up you
database instead of your file system.

Also, letting the web server component of webpy (or a webserver like apache or
lighttpd) serve up your static content will free your head from a lot of things,
like generating the correct HTTP headers, caching etc.

Yes, I've been using $: for this.

Another question; I want to be able to upload a file and store it in my
database, I'm assuming with the bytea type, and then be able to serve up that
file later.  I haven't found any examples of how to do this, examples all seem
to just store files on the filesystem, generate a unique filename, and then put
that filename in the database.  I feel like I would like to avoid having a bunch
of files cluttering up my drive; am I misguided in this?  Is there an inherent
disadvantage to storing files in the database?

Hi Steven,

Have you tried disabling the websafe filter with a colon before the
$:function() name?

Take a look here:


      By default, Templetor uses web.websafe filter to do HTML-encoding.

      >>> render.hello("1 < 2")
      "Hello 1 &lt; 2"

      To turnoff filter use : after $. For example:
           The following will not be html escaped.
      $:form.render()

      http://webpy.org/docs/0.3/templetor#filtering
      Kind regards,

Ruben
