SQLFORM.grid Add and Edit buttons incorrect links when running inside another view

[Flavio Bovio]

Add and edit button links are created incorrectly when the grid is inside another view. With the smartgrid works ok.

Add button link

http://localhost:8000/erp_proto/tablas_grales/index/addt/forma_pago                        Return None

Should be

http://localhost:8000/erp_proto/tablas_grales/index/forma_pago/add/forma_pago

Edit button link

http://localhost:8000/erp_proto/tablas_grales/index/edit/forma_pago/1                        Return None

Should be

http://localhost:8000/erp_proto/tablas_grales/index/forma_pago/edit/forma_pago/1

CONTROLLER

def index():

    if request.args(0) == 'forma_pago':
        grid = SQLFORM.grid(db.forma_pago, csv=False, user_signature=False, details=False, advanced_search=False)
        return dict(grid=grid, enc='Formas de Pago')

    if request.args(0) == 'vendedores':
        grid = SQLFORM.grid(db.vendedores, csv=False, user_signature=False, details=False, advanced_search=False)
        return dict(grid=grid, enc='Vendedores')

    if request.args(0) == 'tipo_documento':
        grid = SQLFORM.grid(db.tipo_documento, csv=False, user_signature=False, details=False, advanced_search=False)
        return dict(grid=grid, enc='Tipos de Documento')

    if request.args(0) == 'situacion_iva':
        grid = SQLFORM.grid(db.situacion_iva, csv=False, user_signature=False, details=False, advanced_search=False)
        return dict(grid=grid, enc='Situaciones IVA')

I'm not a grid expert, but looking at the gluon code, it appears the button code depends on the current grid name for generating Edit and Delete buttons.  You may want to look at the links argument to grid ("used to display new columns which can be links to other pages"), and is a dict with a column head value and a 'body" function that returns a value (such as an A() helper) when given a row.
