    <p>I'm having a problem accessing a Django Form POST data.</p> <p>I need to pass request.user to the form, so:</p> <pre><code>class TradeForForm(forms.Form): def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): user = kwargs.pop('user') else: request = kwargs.pop('request') super(TradeForForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) #Obtain items for user if user: print user items = Item.objects.filter(user=user) choices = [] for i in range(len(items)): choices.append([i,items[i].name]) self.fields['item_to_be_traded_for'].choices = choices trade_type = forms.ChoiceField( widget=RadioSelect(), choices = [ ['0','Item'], ['1','Money offer'], ] ) item_to_be_traded_for = forms.ChoiceField() </code></pre> <p>and then call it using:</p> <pre><code>def trade_for(request, item_id): item = Item.objects.get(id=item_id) if request.method == 'POST': form = TradeForForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): pass else: form = TradeForForm(user=request.user) variables = RequestContext(request, { 'form': form, 'item': item, }) return render_to_response('trade_for.html', variables) </code></pre> <p>Now the problem is, when doing GET to access the empty form, it works just fine. But when I post it, I received an error:</p> <pre><code>KeyError at /trade_for/1/ 'user' Request Method: POST Request URL: http://localhost:8000/trade_for/1/ Django Version: 1.3.1 Exception Type: KeyError Exception Value: 'user' </code></pre> <p>Now how can this be fixed? I assume it's because the user variable is not passed to the form when creating it using the request.POST data, but I want to be able to create the form with the user parameter and without it, both working.</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.
