Hi,

I'm working with pagination of a large formset in my view function. For 
forms outside the range to be viewed, I'm currently doing this:

for form in results_formset:
    place_to_test = int(form['placing'].value())

    if place_to_test not in visible_range:
        form.fields['race_number'].widget = HiddenInput()


visible_range is a list of places that should be viewed according to the 
pagination.

However, most of the formset is hidden. Simply using a HiddenInput() 
results in a large number of non-visible forms still being sent from the 
server. I have a scheme where I will condense the hidden information from 
the non-visible forms to save bandwidth. To do this within the current code 
structure requires me to be able to remove a non-visible form from the 
formset.

My code should become something like:

for form in results_formset:

    place_to_test = int(form['placing'].value())
    race_number = form['race_number'].value()

    if place_to_test not in visible_range:

        # need method to remove form from results_formset
        pass

        # condensing the information to save bandwidth
        if place_to_test < range_min:
            hidden_before.append("%s:%s" % (place_to_test, race_number))
        elif place_to_test > range_max:
            hidden_after.append("%s:%s" % (place_to_test, race_number))


I can't find how to remove the non-visible form from the formset - can 
anyone provide a pointer?

Best wishes,
Richard Brockie
