I can't read this code at all. What's with all the spaces everywhere? Why are you using BLOCK CAPITALS for class names? Anyway, I suspect the cause is setting the widget. I've no idea what the SELECT widget does - it's not the same as the built-in Select widget, since Python is case-sensitive - but I would try without that and see if it now works. If not, please post the code of that widget class. -- DR. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
