This is the traceback:
Traceback:
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/django/core/handlers/
base.py" in get_response
111. response = callback(request,
*callback_args, **callback_kwargs)

decorators.py" in _wrapped_view
23. return view_func(request, *args, **kwargs)

46. userID = retrieveUserID(firstname, lastname)
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/django/contrib/auth/
decorators.py" in _wrapped_view
22. if test_func(request.user):
Exception Type: AttributeError at /
Exception Value: 'unicode' object has no attribute 'user'
I also found my error using your pointers. I was passing the user's
first and last name to another view that uses it in a function that
has the @login_required decorator.
That obviously doesn't work but I can remove the decorator there to
fix my issue, thanks for the help guy's.
Concerning my other question, the way I do it now is like this:
Template:
<form action="." method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">{%
csrf_token %}
{{ form }}
<input type="submit" value="Create new CM item">
</form>
View:
class SimpleFileForm(forms.Form):
upload_file = forms.FileField(label='', widget=forms.FileInput,
required=True)
This gives me a file field, a browse button and a submit button. What
I'd like to have is a submit button only, click that opens a file
dialog.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
