Is this even possible, or is it not implemented correctly yet? I have done every last thing I can think of that makes any sense and the results are never what I want.if not request.POST.has_key('submit'): s = get_object_or_404(School, pk=school_name) f = UserRegistrationForm() f.fields['house'].widget.choices = [('test','test')] return render_to_response(' register.html', {'reg_form':f}) f = UserRegistrationForm(data=request.POST) f.fields['house'].widget.choices = [('test','test')] if not f.is_valid(): return render_to_response(' register.html', {'reg_form':f}) I fill in the form and POST it and it tells me that 'test' is not a valid response for house. Why? I can call clean and full_clean on the data after changing the choices, but it doesn't help. How should one do this?
I'm not quite sure what you're trying to do here, but my immediate answer is: Don't set the choices on the Widget. Set the choices on the Field. You're getting the validation error because the *Field* does validation, not the Widget, and a Field has to know what its valid choices are in order to do validation correctly.
