When editing an object, I find it strange that untouched values are
set to blank.
Let's say I have a link object with a date_created field. When I use a
default LinkForm to edit my links, if I don't exclude the date_created
field, that field is set to blank if I don't use that field in my
template (am I clear enough ?)
I would have expected a behaviour like dict.update() in Python :
>>> my_d = {'one': 1, 'two': 2, 'four': 4}
>>> other_d = {'three': 3, 'two': 'II'}
>>> my_d.update(other_d)
>>> for key in my_d.keys():
... print key, my_d[key]
four 4
three 3
two II
one 1
Why LinkForm(request.POST, instance=link) doesn't behaves like
link.update(request.POST) ?
Is it a will or an "omission" ?
Thanks,
Denis
