Hi Tom,
Thanks for pointing me to docs.
I am able to display the error message now.
But because the page is being refreshed, the drop down is not visisble at
first. When i click the register button again, then i can see the error
message. Is there anyway i can show the registration drop down if errors
exists.
My code now looks like below.
Views.py :-
def register_view(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = UserCreationForm(data=request.POST, files=request.FILES)
if form.is_valid():
new_user = form.save()
new_user = authenticate(username=request.POST['username'],
password=request.POST['password1'])
login(request, new_user)
return HttpResponseRedirect(request.GET.get("next"))
else:
item_list =
CoolStuff.objects.filter(show_on_website=True).order_by('-item_rank')
column_1_items_list = item_list.filter(column=ONE)
column_2_items_list = item_list.filter(column=TWO)
column_3_items_list = item_list.filter(column=THREE)
return render_to_response('homepage.html',
{'column_1_items_list': column_1_items_list,
'column_2_items_list': column_2_items_list,
'column_3_items_list': column_3_items_list,
'register_form': form},
context_instance=RequestContext(request))
else:
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('coolstuff.views.homepage'))
base.html has the following for registration form :-
<ul class="nav nav-pills">
<li class="dropdown">
<a class="btn btn-success dropdown-toggle" href="#"
data-toggle="dropdown">Register</a>
<div class="dropdown-menu" style="padding:15px;
left:-150px; padding-bottom:0px;">
<form action="/user/register/?next={{request.path}}"
method="post" class="form-horizontal" name="register_form">{% csrf_token %}
<div class="register_field_errors" style="color:
red;">
{{ register_form.non_field_errors }}
</div>
{% for field in register_form %}
<div class="control-group">
<div class="register_field_errors">
{{ field.errors }}
</div>
{{ field.label_tag }}
{{ field }}
</div>
{% endfor %}
<input class="btn btn-primary" style="clear: left;
width: 100%; height: 32px; font-size: 13px;" type="submit" name="commit"
value="Register" />
</form>
</div>
</li>
<script>
$(function() {
// Setup drop down menu
$('.dropdown-toggle').dropdown();
// Fix input element click problem
$('.dropdown input, .dropdown
label').click(function(e) {
e.stopPropagation();
});
});
</script>
</ul>
How can i make the drop down form for registration to be displayed
automatically with errors rather than user clicking the button again. I
think i will need to write javascript, but i am not sure how i can achieve
it. Please suggest.
Thanks
Sreekanth
