Hi Daniel,
This has got me closer but i'm now just getting an empty select box
appearing on in the form, with no data in.
class NewBugForm(forms.Form):
assigned_to = forms.CharField(max_length=50,widget=forms.Select
(choices=[]), initial='Anyone',required=False)
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
all_users = kwargs.pop("all_users")
super(NewBugForm, self).__init__(*args,**kwargs)
print all_users
self.fields['assigned_to'].choices = all_users
If I print out all_users I can see it is there after the super(), but
for some reason its not appending to the form. The following is a
print out of all_users:
(('Anyone', 'Anyone'), ('Pete Randall', 'Pete Randall'), ('Chris
Smith', 'Chris Smith'))
Could it have something to do with that list not being in the right
format?
Cheers,
Pete.
