Sounds like you are not creating the form in your view .. read the
tutorial the part about creating a form ..
you need the form class, and the view that process your form (a)
creates an empty form b) process the submitted one)
see this relative simple example of a login form ..
class userLoginForm(forms.Form):
email = forms.CharField(max_length=45, label="Email address",
error_messages={'required': 'Please enter an email address.'})
password = forms.CharField(widget=forms.PasswordInput(),
label="Password", error_messages={'required': 'Please enter a
password.'})
def userLogin(request):
context_instance = RequestContext(request)
try:
nextUrl = request.GET['next']
except:
nextUrl = "/myopal/"
if request.POST:
form = userLoginForm(request.POST)
username = request.POST['email']
password = request.POST['password']
if form.is_valid():
user = authenticate(username=username, password=password)
if user is not None:
if user.is_active:
login(request, user)
return HttpResponseRedirect(nextUrl)
else:
error = "This account as been disabled, please contact
support."
return render_to_response('registration/login.html',
{'form': form, 'login_error': error, 'nextUrl': nextUrl},
context_instance)
else:
error = "Wrong details entered, please try again."
return render_to_response('registration/login.html', {'form':
form, 'login_error': error, 'nextUrl': nextUrl}, context_instance)
else:
return render_to_response('registration/login.html', {'form':
form, 'nextUrl': nextUrl}, context_instance)
else:
form = userLoginForm()
return render_to_response('registration/login.html', {'form': form,
'nextUrl': nextUrl}, context_instance)
