Hi everyone, I'm working on a custom form widget to input length values in feet, inches and a fraction of an inch. So far, everything is working as expected, except for validation.
It takes a value input as: 1' 10 1/2" and converts it into inches: 22.5, for storage in a database. My widget combines two text inputs and a select to create the decimal value. So, I'm using a DecimalField and supplying my widget. However, if I input a non-numeric value, I'm getting a ValueError in my value_from_datadict method. So, obviously I need a try/except in that method, but how do I go about adding an error message to the field instead of raising a runtime exception? Once I get this finished, I'd like to add it to Django Snippets to share. Thanks, Brandon -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
