Hi,
I've inherited a django app - running on 0.96. So far, the people
before me have not created any views, and have just used the built-in
admin app to modify everything.
I want to create a view to control adding/editing records for a
specific model.
#So, I create form from the model like:
if add == True:
myObj = ""
myForm = form_for_model (MyModel)
else:
myObj = MyModel.objects.get(pk=myId)
myForm = form_for_instance(myObj)
form = myForm() # this got me at first!!
# Then I pass this form object to my template using render_to_response
return render_to_response('mytemplate.html',
{'myId':myId,
'myForm':form,
},
context_instance=RequestContext(request))
all good so far...
then, in my template... I thought about using
myForm.as_table
but... I want some fields to be disabled if you're editing the record
- still want them displayed, just not editable...
so I tried to display the fields all separately,
form.fieldname
that will let me display all the other fields, but to make my field
readonly I tried putting it in directly... <input type=...... had
to pass in the model object as well to get the data, but the big
kicker is the field is a lookup.... to a really big table....
surely I'm trying to do this the hard way!!!
Is there a way to display a form field and specify it to be read-
only ???
Also, would be nice to be able to add class="vDateField" to my
datefields so it has the nice pop-up like the admin form....
thanks in advance!!
