    <p>I hope i can express myself right, here it goes. </p> <p>I have a handler for a html page that has the objective of editing a "chapter". In this page the chapters are listed and you can use a button to add more chapters. So the first time you open the page, the chapters are listed and a button to add more. If you click 'add', it should present you the same page but with a form for the chapter information.</p> <p>My problem is passing the information of what chapters are we editing when we reload the page, because a can't pass the 'tut_key' - the reference to the chapters. </p> <p>editTut.html:</p> <pre><code>{% for chap in chaps %} Title: {{ chap.title}}&lt;br&gt; {% endfor %} {% if not editMode or editMode == 0 %} &lt;form ????????&gt; &lt;input id="tutBtnNext" type="submit" value="Add"&gt; &lt;/form&gt; {% endif %} {% if editMode == 1 %} &lt;form method="post"&gt; &lt;!-- form stuff --&gt; &lt;/form&gt; {% endif %} </code></pre> <p>the class:</p> <pre><code>class EditTut(FuHandler): def get(self): tutID = self.request.get('tut_key') tut = db.Key.from_path('Tutorial', tutID) chaps = db.GqlQuery("SELECT * FROM Chapter " + "WHERE tutorial = :1", tut) self.render('editTut.html', chaps=chaps) def post(self): tutID = self.request.get("tut_key") tutorial = db.Key.from_path('Tutorial', tutID) title = self.request.get("chapTitle") content = self.request.get("content") note = self.request.get("note") chap = Chapter(tutorial=tutorial, title=title, content=content, note=note) chap.put() self.redirect('/editTut?tut_key=%s' % tutID) #should i use something like this? #I tried but i can't find a way to call this function on the html def addChap(self): tutID = self.request.get("tut_key") self.redirect('/editTut?tut_key=%s' % tutID) </code></pre>

    1. COLet me make sure I understand. The issue is remembering what chapter you were already editing when someone reloads the page? If that's correct, then using a cookie would probably be a good way to go.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
