How to edit form filling it with actual data

I have a function that creates a form, loading the info that already exists in the DB, but I want it to fill the form with the info loaded. I found an article on djangoproject teaching how to do this, but it won't work with me.
At   novo = disciplinaForm(request.POST, instance=atual), if I remove the "request.POST" it loads the info, but don't save. And with "request.POST" it do

The function:

def edit_disciplina(request, disciplina_id):
  atual = disciplina.objects.get(pk=disciplina_id)
  novo = disciplinaForm(request.POST, instance=atual)
  if request.method == 'POST':
    if novo.is_valid():
      novo.save()
      return HttpResponseRedirect('/disciplinas/success/')
    else:
      novo = disciplinaForm(request.POST, instance=atual)
  return render_to_response('/home/zephir/Template/disciplinas/edit_disciplina.html', {'novo': novo}, context_instance=RequestContext(request))
