choose a value
Jose
I want to work as before where it showed the first reading in the
table.

I suggest to change its default value back to None, so that old apps
behave in the same way.
Or at least, let the default value be empty string '', rather than an
English phrase "choose a value". The latter causes a developer have to
customize it again and again when developing applications targeting to
non-English end users.

Ok to make zero='' not to go back to zero=None.

as example, delete_label in forms always have to be set to be able to localize.
All strings 'under the hood' need to be T('string').

Yes but technically, how would you do it?
Some constants strings are defined at the module level, i.e. they do
not belong to any specific application, while internationalization
strings are application specific.
I do not object to changing this. I just do not know how to.

However, aside from this, there is a bug with the new "choose a value" that is unacceptable.

backward compatibility aside. How would you do it?

At the moment, I am compiling a document with problem with the current form system. Along with the document I am also including topics that come up in the google groups and specific issues that continue to arise where the solution does not seem logical.
When I feel that I have a solution that would work I will share this document. A working solution being something that sticks to web2py philosophy, and hopefully as backwards compatible as can be.

prevents us from creating an alternative (as opposed to a replacement)
to SQLFORM.
There is a reason you have to call SQLFORM explicitly (or call crud
which calls SQLFORM) and it is not implicit. The reason that one may
not want to use it.
With a replacement you do not need to wory about backward
compatibility and may not need to use FORM validation mechanism at
all.

Please consider some blog posts toward an immediate goal of
redesign suggestions. As a new entrant into web2py, it
would be handy for me (and others) to understand where the
edge cases lay.
In the early days of Django, I wrote a lot of forms code
(pre-newforms) and I understand it's a difficult problem
to cover all the use cases. By putting your thoughts on
a blog, you might encourage comments from other people who
have different perspectives.
Best regards,

Recently other software projects have taken my focus away from web2py, however I will be diving back into web2py projects
in a week or two, when I do this is one of the first tasks I will be working on.
I would love to hear comments and debates about the topic, and perhaps you are right in that a blog might generate more
response to this particular subject.
