SQLFORM.factory form.process().accepted not behaving as expected

[Jim S]

I have the following code:

form = SQLFORM.factory(Field('auth_group', 'integer', label='Groups', required=True), formname='membership', submit_button='Add Membership')

if form.process().accepted:
   user_update = form.vars
   if user_update['auth_group'] and user_update['auth_group'] != '0':
       db.auth_membership.insert(user_id=userId, group_id=user_update['auth_group'])

   redirect('#')

When I click on my add button it refreshes the page, but nothing else happens.  It never gets past the form.process().accepted:

I've been staring at this for an hour and can't see what I'm doing wrong.  What am I not seeing?

Not sure if this is the problem, but formname is an argument of .process(), not .__init__().

Thanks Anthony.  If I put formname='membership' in the form.process().accepted like this:

form.process(formname='membership').accepted:

Then does that refer to the _id arg set by SQLFORM.factory(_id='membership')???

nope. formname "overrides" the hidden field value _formname

Thanks

The main reason for setting your own formname is if you have more than one form on the same page that would otherwise be assigned the same default name by SQLFORM.

I think I've gotten to the bottom of my problem.  I was using a custom form to display the form created in my controller.  And yes, there are numerous forms on this page.  And, this form is in a LOADed component using AJAX.  

If I use this for the custom form definition:

<table>
 {{=form.custom.begin}}
   <tr>
     <td>
       {{=form.custom.label.site}}
     </td>
     <td>
       {{=form.custom.widget.site}}
     </td>
     <td>
       {{=form.custom.submit}}
     </td>
   </tr>
 {{=form.custom.end}}
 <tr>
     <td></td>
     <td>
       {{=grid}}
     </td>
     <td></td>
 </tr>
</table>

Notice that my form.custom.begin/end are weirdly intersperse within my table.  If I take them out and put them outside the <table></table> elements then it works fine.  

Thanks, I do appreciate you all taking time to look at the code.  Too bad I didn't show you the right code.....
