I'd just like to state that I did try and find this out on my own first but "django form model api" isn't a vary narrowing search. I've read through the documentation multiple times but I'm still a little stuck. It would appear most of the documentation/examples are outdated. I'm certain this has been answered before I just can't find the answer.
First, is the current forms api solid? Or are major changes still planed? It seems like it went through a major change in 2007 and now 2010? The newforms versus forms gets a bit hairy. 2ndly, As a bit of constructive criticism the main tutorial should really have included a section on the forms api. At the very least the end of the tutorial should let you know it exists. I know how time keeps documentation from getting done. I get the whole learning to multiply before using a calculator thing but I didn't even know about that part of the API for a while and it's fairly major. When it comes to forms the tutorial leaves us at multiplication and didn't even tell us there was a calculator. 3rd, and the main question. Does anyone have a simple working example! I'm trying to use the form api using my models but the code in the documentation seems to have a bit of a chicken egg problem. They seem to show a view that displays a new form or posts and saves a form but doesn't show how we got the form for a specific record id in the first place! I'm just trying to create a simple list of records with CRUD. simple enough just like the admin interface only I'll be putting a bunch of other code around this. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
