If you are talking about Django's admin couldn't you implement it by overriding save_model as your subject seems to suggest?
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.save_model <http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.save_model>If you are talking about just a regular form then you could pass the request to the form and then validate based on that. Something like the following: from django import forms class PersonForm(forms.ModelForm): def __init__(self, request, *args, **kwargs): super(PersonForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.request = request def clean(self): if self.instance.user != self.request.user: raise forms.ValidationError("You can't edit someone else's Person record!!") return super(PersonForm, self).clean() class Meta: model = Person exclude = ('user',) On Tue, Apr 13, 2010 at 6:06 PM, Alfredo Alessandrini <alfreal...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hi, > > I've this model: > > class Person(models.Model): > user = models.ForeignKey(User) > courses = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True) > research_statement = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True) > .......... > ............ > > I will let to save the form only when the user is making changes its > model (user=request.user). > > > Thanks, > > Alfredo > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Django users" group. > To post to this group, send email to django-us...@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > django-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com<django-users%2bunsubscr...@googlegroups.com> > . > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/django-users?hl=en. > > -- ======================================= 株式会社ビープラウド イアン・ルイス 〒150-0021 東京都渋谷区恵比寿西2-3-2 NSビル6階 email: ianmle...@beproud.jp TEL:03-6416-9836 FAX:03-6416-9837 http://www.beproud.jp/ ======================================= -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
