I found a tutorial for putting forms in modals that works but its not using CBVs and I'd rather use CBVs. Here is the function that works...
def gaas_create(request): form = GaasWaferDesignForm() context = {'form': form} html_form = render_to_string('engineering/gaas_wafer_designs/gaas_wafer_design_form_inner.html', context, request=request, ) return JsonResponse({'html_form': html_form}) so far this is what I've tried but it doesnt work... class GaasWaferDesignCreateView(LoginRequiredMixin, CreateView): fields = ("design_ui", "emitting", "contact_location", "optical_power", "design_date", "designer", "design_document", "designer_ui", "in_trash", "inactive_date", "notes") model = GaasWaferDesign template_name = 'engineering/gaas_wafer_designs/gaas_wafer_design_form_inner.html' form = GaasWaferDesignForm() context = {'form': form} html_form = render_to_string('engineering/gaas_wafer_designs/gaas_wafer_design_form_inner.html') def options(self, request, *args, **kwargs): response = JsonResponse({'html_form': html_form}) return response def form_valid(self, form): object = form.save(commit=False) object.created_by = self.request.user object.save() return super(GaasWaferDesignCreateView, self).form_valid(form) I'm just guessing but i think the part thats causing it not to work might be html_form = render_to_string('engineering/gaas_wafer_designs/gaas_wafer_design_form_inner.html', context, request=request, ) Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
