The create and update generic views haven't been updated for newforms yet. There's a Django Snippet [1]_ that might be helpful in the meantime. ..

Oldforms isn't worth learning at this point -- newforms is "nearly there". There are some examples ([3]_, [4]_) of how to use newforms in a view on the newforms page in the docs. .. [3] http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/newforms/#using-forms-in-views-and-templates .. [4] http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/newforms/#form-for-instance The only generic views that are currently not working are create and update. - whiteinge --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
