But you can edit items too by using id as a prefix you will be able to get an instance of the object for form creation. something like that: form_submit = False if request.POST: # POST data => we should try to validate # always keep a list of ids of the item you edit ids_string = request.POST.get('ids', None) ids = ids_string.split(',') form_submit = True # we have post DATA we should validate/submit change # MyModelForm is a ModelForm Class all_forms = [MyModelForm(request.POST, prefix=str(id), instance=model.objects.get(pk=id)) for id in ids] if all( [ form.is_valid() for form in all_forms] ): # All forms are valid we can update and save the object for form in all_forms: # update object field form.save() Message( id=None, user=request.user, message=_(u"success") ).save() return ttpResponseRedirect( "Where/you/want/after/a/valid/edit/") else: Message( id=None, user=request.user, message=_(u"fail") ).save() if not form_submit: # no POST data we should initiate the forms # handle ids ids_string = request.GET.get('ids', None) ids = ids_string.split(',') # Create the Custom ModelForm all_forms = [ MyModelForm(prefix=str(id), instance=model.objects.get(pk=id)) for id in ids ] Hope this still helps --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
