I have a basic form that shows what a person entered when it is submitted. However, it shows up as a form.CharField (textbox) instead of model.CharField. Is there a way to access the model's saved data from the Forms? Also does form_for_model (http://www.djangobook.com/en/ 1.0/chapter07/) no longer exist? I can't get it to load.
models.py: from django.db import models from django.forms import ModelForm class Question(models.Model): question = models.CharField('Question', max_length = '200', primary_key = True) pub_date = models.DateField(auto_now_add = True) def __unicode__(self): return self.question class Choice(models.Model): Question = models.ForeignKey(Question) choice = models.CharField(max_length = '200') class Questionform(ModelForm): class Meta: model = Question class Choiceform(ModelForm): class Meta: model = Choice view: from qotd.models import * from django.shortcuts import render_to_response from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect def contact(request, question): if request.method == 'POST': # If the form has been submitted... form = Questionform(request.POST) # A form bound to the POST data if form.is_valid(): form.save() #return HttpResponseRedirect('results.html', {'form': form} else: form = Questionform() return render_to_response('contact.html', { 'form': form }) template: <html> {% if not form.is_valid %} <form action="/contact/" method="POST"> {{ form.as_p }} <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> {% endif %} {% if form.is_valid %} {{ form.question }} {% endif %} </form> </html> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
