On https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/forms/#looping-over-the-
form-s-fields
the example of looping over the form's fields omits {{ field.help_text }},
though this field is outputted by default by {{ form.as_ul }}. I believe
we should add {{ field.help_text }} in the example to be both consistent
and complete.
In addition, but not related, {{ field.errors }} might need a span for the
example to be usable in real life.
From the docs:
---
Looping over the form’s fields¶
If you’re using the same HTML for each of your form fields, you can reduce
duplicate code by looping through each field in turn using a {% for %}
loop:
{{{
{% for field in form %}
<div class="fieldWrapper">
{{ field.errors }}
{{ field.label_tag }} {{ field }}
</div>
{% endfor %}
{% for field in form %}
<div class="fieldWrapper">
{{ field.errors }}
{{ field.label_tag }} {{ field }}
</div>
{% endfor %}
}}}
