Jacob,
Yep that was it. If I shouldn't assume anything from the browser.
Then how would I loop through the contents of my data? Below is my
view and template file
/////////////////
This code is in my template file
{% for a in pad %}
<tr>
<td>
<select name="{{ a.id }}">
<option value="---">---</option>
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
<option value="3">3</option>
<option value="4">4</option>
<option value="5">5</option>
</select> {{ a.size }} -- ${{ a.price }}
</td>
</tr>
{% endfor %}
/////////////////////
This code is my view function:
def addpad(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
i = 0
for a in request.POST:
if a[i] != '---':
p = RugPad.objects.get(id=i)
assert False, request.POST
return render_to_response('addpad.html', {})
///////////////
When the form is posted I want my addpad function to loop through all
the values that have been posted. And if any posted key's contain a
value of something other than '---' then I want to add that to the
cart (Currently I'm just doing an assert statement). If I have other
keys ( such as 'x', 'y', 'submit' ) in my dict then that will cause
the loop to error out. Would you know of any other way to do this so
that I don't have to rely on the contents that come from the web
browser?
Thanks for your help
