Thanks for the help. I may pick it up again - but probably not for this

So far my impression of forms is - ick - lame.

this is very handy when updating multiple related objects in a single form
submit.
Is there a similar facility for django/python or will I need to write it?

That did it. I figured if the form had a primary key it would do an update. I
guess that was wrong.
The url is the form you describe, but the dispatcher view method adds the id to
the GET of the request to pass it on. So the url for this is actually
/incidents/edit/4.
Thanks.

n_occurred = forms.DateTimeField(widget=widgets.AdminSplitDateTime())
reporter = forms.ModelChoiceField(User.objects.all(),
widget=forms.HiddenInput())
id = forms.CharField(widget=forms.HiddenInput())
class Meta:
model = Incident
fields = ('title', '
Thanks, that makes the form show up populated.
But saving it creates a new record, despite making sure I have id in a hidden
field on the form. :-/

Is there some way to specify order dependency in js files using this mechanism?

I'm trying to use the date/time entry widgets from admin and I get this

Where is this supposed to come from?
In annoyance, I have copied the head section precisely from an admin page that
work. Still doesn't work in my page.

In fact, I'm pretty fuzzy in general about how code like widgets gets "found"

I've read this:

Nifty.
Now, how exactly do I make sure that the media urls get spewed properly into
the head section of the page? This is apparently omitted everywhere I've
looked. The admin template seems to pull it off properly but

I like the rails mechanism for specifying page layouts (boilerplate
template that surrounds the currently rendered view).
Its simple and obvious.
I cannot, having read most of two books on django now along with the
website stuff, figure out how to do the same thing in django.
Also, I'm build

I added the last line and restarted the server. Same result.

You shouldn't have to do that. Most browsers cache form state so if a
user jumps off your page, then hits back, the form values should all
be restored. Try doing nothing and see what the browser does. I'll
bet it is what you want.
