Thanks man, the only problem I still have is the following
class Book(models.Model):
user = models.ForeignKey(User)
title = models.CharField(max_length = 100)
author = models.CharField(max_length = 100)
publisher = models.CharField(max_length = 100)
publication_date = models.DateField()
front_page = models.FileField(upload_to='books')
def __unicode__(self):
return self.title
@csrf_exempt
@login_required
def update_book(request):
dontvalidate = request.POST['dontvalidate']
book_id = int(request.POST['book_id'])
book = get_object_or_404(Book, id = book_id)
if dontvalidate == 'yes':
bookform = BookForm(instance = book)
else:
booknoteform = BookForm(request.POST, request.Files)
if bookform.is_valid():
bookform.save()
return render_to_response(
'books/update_book.html',
{
'bookform':bookform,
'dontvalidate': dontvalidate,
'is_authenticated' : request.user.is_authenticated(),
},
context_instance = RequestContext(request)
)
the problem is simply that I can return back the information of the
model to be updated except that of the front_page field.
I did add enctype in the form template but this also didn't work. is
there a way out?
