Malcolm,
I tried you code but it's still not displaying any of the members for
that minute instance. Below is the code for my url, view, model, and
template
url
(r'^csi/rso/(minutes)/(\w{1,100})/$',
'mysite.rso.views_rso.showminutespage'),
/////////
view
def showminutespage(request, thetable, partitle):
thetabinfo = eval(thetable).objects.get(id=partitle)
return render_to_response(thetable + '_detail.html', {'thetabinfo':
thetabinfo, 'leftnav': leftnav.objects.all(), 'secondstuff':
minutes.lmembers.all()})
////////////////
model
class members(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(maxlength=100)
names = models.CharField(maxlength=100)
email = models.EmailField()
city = models.CharField(maxlength=100)
state = models.USStateField()
image = models.ImageField(upload_to='c:/django/site_media/')
class minutes(models.Model):
date = models.DateField()
lasted = models.IntegerField()
lmembers = models.ManyToManyField(members)
body = models.TextField(maxlength=5000)
////////////////////
template
{% for x in secondstuff %}
{{ x }}
{% endfor %}
///////////////////////
I did notice that when I opened my minutes table the column lmembers
was null for every row. When i open my rso_minutes_lmembers I do have
three records that contain the id number of the minutes instance.
