    <p><strong>Custom form field</strong> + <strong>multiple inheritance</strong> + <strong>a class that stores the icon class name</strong></p> <p>First, let's define a class that captures the icon class name. We'll call it <em>IconName</em>:</p> <pre><code>class IconName(object): def get_icon_name(self): return self._icon_name def set_icon_name(self, value): self._icon_name = value icon_name = property(get_icon_name, set_icon_name) </code></pre> <p>You need to come up with custom field type for each form field type you use. Here is how it's done with IntegerField. Your custom field class needs to inherit from the original django form field class (IntegerField, in this case) and the <em>IconName</em> class.</p> <pre><code>class CustomCharField(CharField, IconName): pass </code></pre> <p>After you have defined all of the custom form field types that your form requires, update your form with them. Next, you need to initialize the <code>icon_name</code> for each form field in the form's <code>__init__()</code>:</p> <pre><code>def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super(forms.Form, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.fields['integer'].icon_name = 'icon-home' ... </code></pre> <p>In your template, you can do:</p> <pre><code>{% for item in form.visible_fields %} &lt;div class="control-group"&gt; &lt;label class="control-label" for="{{ item.name }}"&gt;{{ item.label }}&lt;/label&gt; &lt;div class="controls"&gt; {% if item.field.icon_name %} &lt;div class="input-prepend"&gt; &lt;span class="add-on"&gt;&lt;i class="{{ item.field.icon_name }}"&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt; {% endif %} {{ item }} &lt;p class="help-block"&gt;{{ item.help_text }}&lt;/p&gt; {% if item.field.icon_name %} &lt;/div&gt; {% endif %} &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; {% endfor %} </code></pre> <p>I have not tried this myself but it should work (assuming I understand you correctly)</p>

    1. COSeems to be a good solution for my problem. It clearly adds a property on fields and uses it in templates. I'll try and let you know. Thanks.

    2. COI made few minor tweaks to your solution : the icon_name can be accessed in the template with `item.field.icon_name` rather than `item.icon_name`, and the form's `__init__()` was lacking the forms.Form initialization (`super(forms.Form, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)`), which creates the form's fields dict. I've edited your response. Many many thanks for your work on my problem !!!!!

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.
