Could you clarify what "doesn't deem to work" means in your case? If I
type this into a file:
from django import forms
class MyForm(forms.Form):
auto_open_choices = forms.MultipleChoiceField(choices=(
('google', 'Google'), ('msn', 'MSN'), ('yahoo',
'Yahoo')),
required=False, initial=['google'])
and try this at the "./manage.py shell" interactive prompt (which is the
same as using the form in a template), it has the "google" choice
selected in the initial form display.
In [1]: import sample
In [2]: print sample.MyForm()
<tr><th><label for="id_auto_open_choices">Auto open
choices:</label></th><td><select multiple="multiple" name="auto_open_choices"
id="id_auto_open_choices">
<option value="google" selected="selected">Google</option>
<option value="msn">MSN</option>
<option value="yahoo">Yahoo</option>
</select></td></tr>
So you've either trimmed a critical piece of code that is causing the
problem, or you have different expectations from what is intended to
happen.
