Tim,
Why do I need to do the following:
if ('price' in request.POST) and (request.POST['price'] <>
NOT_PICKED):
instead of
if request.POST['price'] <> NOT_PICKED:
////////////
Everytime the form is submitted a value for price is sent to the
view. If no price was selected then the value of
request.POST['price'] is equal to '-----------------'. So price will
always be submitted.
Thanks
