Well usually you first create a form in django and use its instance to generate the HTML. You can also write the HTML by yourself and all you need to be careful of is that name and id attributes of you inputs and input type are same as in the class you define. Your HTML corresponds to: class MyForm(forms.Form): Field11 = forms.CharField(label="Username", max_length=255) I highly recommend to first setup a form class then write HTML and making form fields have more sensible names then Field11. Also i suggest these links as further reading: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/forms/ http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/forms/api/ http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/forms/fields/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
