Hi all,

 

I've created a ModelForm and am attempting to use it, but all of my date fields are coming up with type "text" instead of a datepicker. Can anybody tell me what's going on?

 

MODEL:

 

class GIS_WO(models.Model):
    WON = models.CharField(max_length=7, blank=True, null=True)
    status = models.CharField(max_length=20)
    priority = models.IntegerField()
    location = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    deadline = models.DateField(blank=True, null=True)
    type = models.CharField(max_length=50)
    notes = models.CharField(max_length=512, blank=True, null=True)
    creation_timestamp = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True, null=True)
    update_timestamp = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True, null=True)
    start_dt = models.DateTimeField(blank=True, null=True)
    end_dt = models.DateTimeField(blank=True, null=True)
    def __unicode__(self):
        return unicode(self.id)

 

ModelForm:

class GIS_WO_Form(ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = GIS_WO

 

VIEW:

def detail(request, id):
    wo = get_object_or_404(GIS_WO, pk=id)
    form = GIS_WO_Form(instance=wo)
    return render_to_response('GIS_WO_APP/detail.html', {'form': form}, context_instance=RequestContext(request))

 

OUTPUT:

<form action="" method="post">
 <tr><th><label for="id_WON">WON:</label></th><td><input id="id_WON" type="text" name="WON" value="C-13001" maxlength="7" /></td></tr>
<tr><th><label for="id_status">Status:</label></th><td><input id="id_status" type="text" name="status" value="OPEN" maxlength="20" /></td></tr>
<tr><th><label for="id_priority">Priority:</label></th><td><input type="text" name="priority" value="1" id="id_priority" /></td></tr>
<tr><th><label for="id_location">Location:</label></th><td><input id="id_location" type="text" name="location" value="MY HOUSE" maxlength="200" /></td></tr>
<tr><th><label for="id_deadline">Deadline:</label></th><td><input type="text" name="deadline" value="2013-04-06" id="id_deadline" /></td></tr>
<tr><th><label for="id_type">Type:</label></th><td><input id="id_type" type="text" name="type" value="New Constructions" maxlength="50" /></td></tr>
<tr><th><label for="id_notes">Notes:</label></th><td><input id="id_notes" type="text" name="notes" value="Some Notes" maxlength="512" /></td></tr>
<tr><th><label for="id_start_dt">Start dt:</label></th><td><input type="text" name="start_dt" id="id_start_dt" /></td></tr>
<tr><th><label for="id_end_dt">End dt:</label></th><td><input type="text" name="end_dt" id="id_end_dt" /></td></tr>
</form>
