There are multiple problems here. Firstly, you want to be iterating over self.location.all(), not self.location. The self.location attribute is a ManyRelatedManager instance (which you really don't care about at all, trust me -- the point is, it's not something iterable). You use self.location as a queryset, essentially, so you can filter it, etc. Secondly, 'v' will then be a Location instance. So comparing it to "" is not going to do anything sensible. Possibly you want to be testing if str(v) != "" instead (comparing apples to apples, rather than elephants to apples). I'm still not entirely sure why this problem led to the error you reported, but it's not impossible to imagine. I would have expected you to get some kind of error like "ManyRelatedManager is not iterable", though. *shrug* Regards, Malcolm -- No one is listening until you make a mistake. http://www.pointy-stick.com/blog/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
