Hi,

I have a simple scenario using Django 0.96 and am looking for a
cleaner solution than what I currently have:

I want to include a simple submission form (a few simple fields) on
most pages of my site. I have the form action set to '.' so that
validation can be done in place and errors displayed to the user. I am
currently checking for the POST and either handling it or creating a
new form in each of these views and then passing the form to each of
my templates, e.g.

def example_page(request):
        if request.method == 'POST':
                form = SubmitMeForm(request.POST)
                if form.is_valid():
                        # do your thing
                        return HttpResponseRedirect('/done/')
        else:
                form = SubmitMeForm()

        variables = RequestContext(request, {
                        'submitMeForm': form,
                        })
        return render_to_response('somePage.html', variables)


I have 2 issues with this:

1 - I have to include this code in each and every view that represents
a page that has this template. There has to be a simpler way of doing
it.

2 - What if one of these pages has another Django form in it? I now
have to handle the fact that the POST could have resulted from this
form OR the other one. How would I do that?

TIA
