Using a form in a view
The standard pattern for processing a form in a view looks like this:
def contact(request):
if request.method == 'POST': # If the form has been submitted...
form = ContactForm(request.POST) # A form bound to the POST data
if form.is_valid(): # All validation rules pass
# Process the data in form.cleaned_data
# ...
return HttpResponseRedirect('/thanks/') # Redirect after POST
else:
form = ContactForm() # An unbound form
return render_to_response('contact.html', {
'form': form,
})
--------------------------------------------------
I don't understand where is the difference...
