I think the problem is related to passing the resultsdict dictionary to the
DisplayForms.
Once, I did not pass in the dictionary then the initial value works.

Nis,
Thanks for the reply. I tried your example and that does not work. Here is the
snippet of my code:
views.py
def displayresults(request, object_id):
result = Result.objects.get(pk=object_id)
startdatevalue = ''
starttimevalue = ''
startdatestr = '%s' % result.ExecutionStartDate
if startdatestr != 'None':
startdatevalue = "%04d-%02d-%02d" % (
result.ExecutionStartDate.year, result.ExecutionStartDate.month,
result.ExecutionStartDate.day)
starttimevalue = "%02d:%02d:%02d" % (
result.ExecutionStartDate.hour, result.ExecutionStartDate.minute,
result.ExecutionStartDate.second)
result_dict = {'TestName': result.TestName,
'TestVersion': result.TestVersion,
'ExecutionStartDate_date': startdatevalue,
'ExecutionStartDate_time': starttimevalue,
'SubmitDate': result.SubmitDate,
'ExecutionTime': result.ExecutionTime,
'Owner': result.Owner,
'Project': result.ProjectId,
'Phase': result.PhaseId,
'Testtype': result.TestTypeId,
'Station': result.StationId,
'UserIntervention': result.UserInt erventionFlag,
}
form = DisplayResults(result_dict)
resultforms.py:
class DisplayResults(forms.Form):
TestName = forms.CharField()
TestVersion = forms.CharField()
ExecutionStartDate_date = forms.DateField()
ExecutionStartDate_time = forms.TimeField()
SubmitDate = forms.CharField()
ExecutionTime = forms.CharField()
Owner = forms.CharField()
Project = forms.CharField()
Phase = forms.CharField()
Testtype = forms.CharField()
status = forms.ChoiceField(required=False,choices
=(('choice1','Choice1'),('choice2','Choice 2')), initial = 'choice2' )
Here is the html output:
<tr><th><label for="id_status">Status:</label></th><td><select name="status" id=
"id_status">
<option value="choice1">Choice1</option>
<option value="choice2">Choice 2</option>
</select></td></tr>
