Body
I would like to out a number of checkboxes in one of my templates and I can't get it to work. I'm trying to pass an array containing forms.BooleanField() in my form like : <pre><code>class ProjetSettingsForm(forms.Form): ## A bunch of form fields of no interest arrayCheck = [] cb1 = forms.BooleanField() cb2 = forms.BooleanField() arrayCheck.append(cb1) arrayCheck.append(cb2) </code></pre> and output it like this in my template <pre><code>{% for a in form.arrayCheck %} {{ a }} {% endfor %} </code></pre> My form is called by a view : <pre><code>def settings(request): if request.method == "POST" and (request.POST.get("settings_task_type", "") == "Enregistrer Task Type"): form = ProjetSettingsForm(request.POST, proj_id=request.session['proj']) if form.is_valid(): settings = form.save_task_type() c = {'proj':proj, 'form':form, 'settings':settings} return render_to_response('projet/settings.html', c, context_instance=RequestContext(request)) else: form = ProjetSettingsForm(proj_id=request.session['proj']) settings = "" c = {'proj':proj, 'form':form, 'settings':settings} return render_to_response('projet/settings.html', c, context_instance=RequestContext(request)) </code></pre> But it displays : <pre><code><django.forms.fields.BooleanField object at 0xb595a2ec> <django.forms.fields.BooleanField object at 0xb595a22c> </code></pre> How can I get it to display the checkboxes correctly ? The reason I need to pass the checkboxes as an array and not one by one is that there will be many of them and I won't know in advance their exact number, it depends on a sql query. EDIT: If someone comes across this post, i found a solution. I don't use a form when I need to pass an array of checkboxes. I send the array directly from my view, create the checkboxes in the template and get the results in <code>request.POST.getlist('my_array')</code>

Guidance

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.
