I can print the prod_name inside the views.py but cannot pass that prod_name to the form page of selected product text filed. Main goal is to throw the dropdown value received from form page to views.py and send the same back to the form page from views.py. Hence I will be able to see the changing product name when I select different value from the dropdown.
I am new to Django and would appreciate if you can help me with the working code.
