So, for the record, I failed to get any form of proper
template variable use or lookup to do what I needed.
However, I was able to achieve success in my table construction
using the following custom template filter as found here:
http://diffract.me/2009/09/django-template-filter-show-list-of-objects-as-table-with-fixed-number-of-columns/
---- File: my_filter.py --------------------------------------------
from django import template
register = template.Library()
def tablecols(data, cols):
rows = []
row = []
index = 0
for user in data:
row.append(user)
index = index + 1
if index % cols == 0:
rows.append(row)
row = []
# Still stuff missing?
if len(row) > 0:
rows.append(row)
return rows
register.filter('tablecols', tablecols)
and then in my template:
{% load my_filters %}
and:
{% for row in attr_form|tablecols:2 %}
<tr>
{% for f in row %}
{% if forloop.first %}
<td>{{ f.label }}</td>
{% endif %}
<td>{{f.errors}}{{f}}</td>
{% endfor %}
</tr>
{% endfor %}
