Hi there. I'm new to Django and Python, so I appreciate any help you guys can provide.
I am working on an app that allows a user to create extended profiles with text and photos. In addition, each profile is associated with a single ZIP code via a ForeignKey. As it stands now, the admin add-profile page generates a select pulldown menu with all available ZIP codes. That, of course, cannot work on a production site. Instead, I would like to have a text field that accepts a user's ZIP code and then performs a lookup on the foreign key during validation. If the given ZIP is found, the associated foreign key would be saved; if not, an error would be returned. I know I theoretically could create a ZIP code table in which the codes themselves were the primary keys, and then use raw_admin_id. But I will be working with a legacy with previously-assigned keys, and ZIP codes aren't really well suited for primary keys, anyway. My question, then, is this: What's the most elegant way to pull off this hack? By the way, I am using newforms and the newforms-admin branch. (I want my customizations to work with 1.0 and beyond.)
