Hi all,

  I have a short question, it's probably a stupid one but I can't quite
figure out why Django behaves this way.

  I am using limoudou's 'expr' tag, btw.

  In a template html file, why can I do this (very simplified example):

    <div style="somestyle">  {{ form.somefield }}  </div>

  but not this:

    {% expr form.somefield as var %}
    <div style="somestyle">  {{ var }}  </div>

  The 2nd example causes Django to raise an AttributeError, saying
"FormWrapper instance has no attribute 'somefield'."

  Why can I call the somefield method from within variable expansion
{{}} but not inside a custom tag? The reason I want to do this is I
want to use the same template for listing some object properties as for
displaying input fields to modify them.

  Thanks in advance,

mikah
