I often want to add properties to a formset that will fill a table cell with flexibly wrapping, read-only descriptive text. For example, the description of a product, where the enterable field is the quantity ordered.
If I use a field, the widget gets a fixed width and the contents do not wrap (unless I use a Textarea, which then gets a fixed number of rows). The product descriptions can vary from one word to a military- style extended riff on options. Moreover, if I understand correctly, it is either not possible or unwise to display the initial value of a field as a string. So what I end up doing is rolling my own set of forms (that is, not using a formset) where I can add extra text properties to each form at will. Any other better solutions to this problem? Did I miss anything in the above description? Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
