def contact(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
f = ContactForm(request.POST)
if f.is_valid():
email = f.cleaned_data['email']
... #send email
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('contact_success'))
else:
f=ContactForm()
return render_to_response(
'post_contact.html',
{ 'form':f },
context_instance = RequestContext(request)
)
I am still workong on the view code to send email when users submit
the form. The problem is that required field did not validate and
block the form submission. User is able to submit the form without
providing email which is a required field.
