You don't need temp varible. and there is a short cut for your try/except http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/shortcuts/#get-object-or-404 This would do def adopt_bunny(request, id): bunny = get_object_or_404(Bunny, pk=id) bunny.adoption_count += 1 bunny.save() Don't know why it would inc by 3 or 4. Assuming you are running dev server... I'd add a print statement in there print "bunny %s: %s" % (bunny.id, bunny.adoption_count) just to see when/if this code is being called multiple times and the value of adoption_count when it is. Maybe add print to Bunny's save method to see where else it is getting modified/saved. Also I'd probably make a method in the BunnyModel instead of doing this in the view. Maybe overkill for this case (but today's overkill is tomorrow's maintenance saving feature) Bunny(Model): ... def adopt(self): self.adoption_count += 1 self.save() Then from your view call it def adopt_bunny(request, id): bunny = get_object_or_404(Bunny, pk=id) bunny.adopt() return single_bunny(request, id, True) -- Norman J.
