Isn't your _onclick using the same quote (') for the middle-ish string and the inner string it encloses?

cant understand why this does not work

 {{=DIV(DIV(H3("???"),P(x["waiting"]),_class="inner"),DIV(I(_class="fa fa-mouse-pointer"),_class="icon"),A(T("Please wait..."),_class="small-box-footer"),_class="small-box bg-red"

 ,_id=x["kpi"],_onclick="web2py_component('{{=URL('kpi','people.load')}}', target='people')")}}

    ,_id=x["kpi"],_onclick="web2py_component('{{=URL('kpi','people.load'))
                                                                         ^

SyntaxError: EOL while scanning string literal

but this works

 {{=DIV(DIV(H3("???"),P(x["waiting"]),_class="inner"),DIV(I(_class="fa fa-mouse-pointer"),_class="icon"),A(T("Please wait..."),_class="small-box-footer"),_class="small-box bg-red"

 ,_id=x["kpi"],_onclick="web2py_component('/fileit/kpi/people.load', target='people')")}}

Solved it, dont know if its the best solution but fine by me :)

 {{url=URL('kpi',x['kpi']+'.load')}}

 {{click="web2py_component('{0}', target='{1}')".format(url,x['kpi']) }}

 {{=DIV(DIV(H3("???"),P(x["waiting"]),_class="inner"),DIV(I(_class="fa fa-mouse-pointer"),_class="icon"),A(T("click to update..."),_class="small-box-footer"),_class="small-box bg-red"

 ,_id=x["kpi"],_onclick=click)}}
