Bob,
I'm thinking thought 1 is closer to what I was trying to do. The hard part
here to putting it in the template is the slightly limited template
language.
I was thinking I could do:
for title in CartItem.product.category.all()
ifequal title "one of my three qualifying categories"
show the white glove option
endifequal
endfor
But that could possibly show multiple copies of that form. I would then
need to break out of that loop. (Still trying to find out if that can be
one in django which I don't believe so).
I'm very intrigued by your second thought and it sounds MUCH cleaner. I
just have no clue how to set that up. But thats what google and django-docs
are for I guess.
I'll let you know what I come up with.
Thanks
