Hello All
I seem to be having a bit of a problem with separation of markup and
code.
I would like to output from 3 different models; railways, rail lines
and stations a nested unordered list, so far i have got this to work:
def view_transport(request):
railway_list = Railway.objects.all()
output = '<ul>'
for rail in railway_list:
output += '<li>'+rail.name+'</li><ul>'
line_list = Line.objects.filter(railway=rail)
for line in line_list:
output += '<li>'+line.name+'</li><ul>'
station_list =
Station.objects.filter(line=line)
for station in station_list:
output += '<li>'+station.name+'</li>'
output += '</ul>'
output += '</ul>'
output += '</ul>'
return render_to_response('map/transport.html', {'var': output})
This will output something like this:
<ul><li>Tokyo Metro</li><ul><li>Ginza Line</li><ul><li>Shibuya</li></
ul></ul><li>Japan Railway</li><ul></ul>
This is fine for the output but I think there should be a better way
to achieve this without having any markup in the view, i have seen the
{{ var|unordered_list }} template tag but I do not have a clue how I
would create a nested list in the view to pass to this template tag.
I am a first time user of Python and Django, any help with this would
be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
