Updating multiple records from one HTML form

Hi, I'm starting to investigate newforms in detail (having previously used the old forms library) since I have a job to convert an Access DB to web format. The client wants to maintain a similar layout to what they have in Access, which in places means having one page which has several records on

Re: Updating multiple records from one HTML form

It worked, first time :-) For the record, this is what the code looks like now: urls.py: (r'address/edit/(?P\d+)/', 'testdb.mtable.views.edit_address') views.py: def edit_address(request, id=None): address = Address.objects.get(pk=id) country = address.country AddressForm = form_

Imitating "edit_inline" in a view

This question is related to this one I asked a couple of months ago: http://decenturl.com/groups.google/djangomultipleforms I'd like to use something similar to the "edit_inline" option, but in a view. My test models look like this: class Person(models.Model): person_name = models.CharField

Creating DB objects from dictionaries

Suppose I have a dictionary like this: data = { 'a':'1', 'b':'2', 'c':'3' } and a model like this: class Test(models.Model): a = models.CharField(maxlength=8) b = models.CharField(maxlength=8) b = models.CharField(maxlength=8) I would like (in a python script) to be able to say t

Converting a Django site to flat HTML

This might fail the obviousness test for some people, but it just saved me a shed-load of work. Basic problem is this: I pitched Django to a client a few weeks ago, and they seemed very happy with it and told me to go ahead. About a week into the project (ie, when I'd all but finished it ;) they g

Re: Converting a Django site to flat HTML

Hi, yes I looked at Curl but I was looking for a quick 'n' dirty way to do it, without worrying too much about the options on the command line. Since I'm coming to Python from Perl, I would also probably choose a Perl-ish way to do what you're accomplishing with Python modules. But, whatever :) C

Additional controls in admin interface?

Excuse me if this is a daft question -- I'm new to both Python and Django, but I guess it's a credit to both of them that I'm doing some fairly nifty stuff building a new corporate intranet. One feature I'd like to add is a meeting scheduler, where someone can set up a meeting and invite various

"Back-to-front" LDAP Authentication

I've set up Django under Apache 2, so that users are prompted for their LDAP username/password when they try to visit my Django site. This authentication is the standard Apache http-auth dialog which has nothing to do with Django itself. I also created this (below) as a way to populate the Django

Thanks Ramiro! I'll take a look at that today. I'm always a bit reluctant to use non-standard code, but if it's being regularly merged that should be ok. -- James --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Dj
