Hi,
i have the below that im thought would be the best approach to have a
add contact page on my app:
class ContactForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Contacts
fields = ('contact_type', 'firstname', 'surname', 'notes')
def addcontact(request, request_id=0,
template_name='addcontact.html'):
if request.POST:
form = ContactForm(request.POST)
form.save()
request_id = form.id
# If the save was successful, redirect to another page
redirect_url = reverse(addcontact, args=request_id)
return HttpResponseRedirect(redirect_url)
else:
form = ContactForm()
return render_to_response(template_name, {
'form': form, }, context_instance=RequestContext(request))
i thought this would be the correct way to return the id of the newly
inserted record based on the 1st page of the tutorial, but im getting
the error: "'ContactForm' object has no attribute 'id'
Although it currently just loads the same page, the eventual plan is
to redirect to a url like /contacts/viewcontact/PRIMARYKEY
i saw something similar in the admin "save and continue" where it
retirects using the pk, so thought there would be an obvoius answer im
missing. Would appreciate it if it could be pointed out what im doing
wrong.
Thank you,
Alan
