Re: speeding up iterating over query set

You seem to be hauling the same data from one side to the other, and I can't see why. Try: MyModel.objects.values_list('id', flat=True) You can use that to build a dictionary if you add a second field, or using list comprehensions which I believe are faster than for loops, dict(MyModel.objects.

Re: Extending User model with Inheritance - Attribute Error

Re: Adding errors to form after successful validation

I feel your pain, validating forms can be a PITA... Try reading through this last bit of the form validation docs: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/forms/validation/#cleaning-and-validating-fields-that-depend-on-each-other Cheers, André Terra On Mon, Jul 11, 2011 at 6:02 PM, Brian McKe
