This is a cart/horse pattern I run now and then, and while I can think of several sort of ugly ways to do it, I'm wondering if someone has a clean solution in Django.
I'm going to use a gradebook as an example. The goal is to present a user with a grid of lets say students and assignments to enter grades. The models would be - Students - Assignments - Grades (a M2M between students and assignments) Now on the grade entry form, with multiple students and assignments, the grades don't yet exist for all students, and may not all be entered. How does one generate the form for the possibilities, without pre-creating all the empty grades. It would be nice to use modelform here, but it seems that that the only way to do it is just with a form and then create objects for grades that get filled out in the view. How do others solve this problem of representing a "possible future" object in a form that is then only optionally created if filled out. -Preston -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
