Hi Kenneth
I agree that on my reading of the literature what you say is right.
Here is my actual line adjusted as you suggest:
form = ListingForm(initial={'date': request.session['date'],
'source_id': '2',})
In this case the date field is correctly populated with the preset
date, the source foreign key widget is not, thus the user has to make
a choice. I want the choice that I presume to be correct to be
already presented.
Surely this must be possible? BTW I have tried every variation I can
think of at the end of that line, with quotes, without quotes, and as
a request.session value (that I know is set).
Thanks for your reply.
Mike
