    <p>A few ideas:</p> <ol> <li>You could split your one big html form element into chunks</li> <li>You could use AJAX submit handler to change URL based on pressed submit button </li> <li>You could do what user <code>Cerales</code> suggested, but instead of redirecting which loses POST data you could just call <code>add_school()</code> and other methods, possibly having also dictionary map of actions mapped to their handlers: <code>action_map = {'Add School': add_school, ...}</code> - this would eliminate chain of conditions</li> <li>You could use class-based view which would be basically a class-based version of #3. Django docs for generic class-based views are <a href="https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/class-based-views" rel="nofollow">here</a></li> </ol> <p>I can elaborate on any of those ideas if you will.</p> <p>--</p> <p>EDIT:</p> <p>Answering your question from comments:</p> <pre><code>from django.views.generic.base import View class MySchoolView(View): def post(self, request, *kargs, **kwargs): if 'Add School' in request.POST: return self.add_school(request, *kargs, **kwargs) # (...) def add_school(self, request, *kargs, **kwargs): # (...) </code></pre> <p>Then in urls.py:</p> <pre><code>(r'^schools/add/$', MySchoolView.as_view()) </code></pre> <p>Note that the above is not tested so might require some tweaks to work. <code>View</code> class source code is <a href="https://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/tags/releases/1.3/django/views/generic/base.py#L12" rel="nofollow">here</a>.</p>

    1. COthanks for the answer. Could you please show me how I'd convert one of the actions into a class-based view?

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
