Hi
Newbie trying to preset a field on a form where the object is to be
inserted.  The snippet below does not do it.

class FooForm(ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Foo

<do the def stuff here>
    if request.method == 'GET':
                if foo_id > '0':
                        foo=Foo.objects.get(pk=foo_id)
                        form = FooForm(instance=foo)            # this part 
works OK
                else:
                        form = FooForm()
                        foo=form.save(commit=False)
                        foo.date = request.session['date']        # we know 
request.session
['date'] has a value
                        form = FooForm(instance=foo)

What is a better way?  TIA

Mike
