    <p>What I'm trying to do is to manage several forms in one page, I know there are formsets, and I know how the form management works, but I got some problems with the idea I have in mind.</p> <p>Just to help you to imagine what my problem is I'm going to use the django example models:</p> <pre><code>from django.db import models class Poll(models.Model): question = models.CharField(max_length=200) pub_date = models.DateTimeField() class Choice(models.Model): poll = models.ForeignKey(Poll) choice = models.CharField(max_length=200) votes = models.IntegerField(default=0) </code></pre> <p>Now, imagine I've already made the form clases:</p> <pre><code>from django import forms from mysite.polls.models import Poll, Choice class PollForm(forms.ModelForm): class Meta: model = Poll class ChoiceForm(forms.ModelForm): class Meta: model = Choice exclude = ('poll',) </code></pre> <p>So what I want to do is to have several form instances of the Poll and Choice model in a single page, but mind that these models can be repeated too:</p> <pre><code>&lt;form action="{{url}}" method="post"&gt; {{pollform}} {{choiceform}} {{pollform}} &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p>As you can see there are two Poll forms and one Choice form, but the Poll forms are separated by the Choice form. I do need that the forms keep their order in the page, so is a little harder to use formsets. </p> <p>The problem I got, is that the values that comes in the post are all by the name "answer", so I get a list of all the elements from all forms by the name "answer" and I can't identify which ones belong to each form.</p> <p>Don't know if this explanation get a clear view of my problem. Any ideas to get this stuff done?</p> <p>Thanks for your help!</p> <p>PD: Don't pay attention to the relation between Poll and Choice, those models are just to clarify the problen, so the relation doesn't matter at all. </p>

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.
