Re: what do you think about django FORM system?

OK I realize you are saying I should read the doc's.  So I will provide exactly what I'm saying from the doc's.

Django handles three distinct parts of the work involved in forms:

• preparing and restructuring data ready for rendering
• creating HTML forms for the data
• receiving and processing submitted forms and data from the client

It is possible to write code that does all of this manually, but Django can take care of it all for you.

I read the above and I say why do I need to subclass anything.  CharField is provided and that's all I really need because it's just a few chars the user is going to enter.  But I need to provide an ID, a SIZE, a few things - where is that info and where are the examples?  Maybe I missed them?  I've been know to mis-read stuff.

I can tell you what I found to be hard to understand (and I don't think I do understand at the moment) that is how to set the HTML, the types, ID, and any of the special attributes of the object.  I understand that I can sub-class but it's also my understanding that I shouldn't have too.  For example I want to use the new HTML 5 type=month.  I'd also like to use size but so far I haven't determined how.  I did get the validation working.

Maybe a look at Rendering fields manually in the Forms section of the doc might be helpful.
