Re: Create a view form capable of saving data into models through FK

Hello,

The most beautiful way (IMHO) is to create a widget type for this. See this answer on SO[1]. I wonder why this is not part of Django yet…

Hi Guys, 

A noob here,

I have two models, 

class Students(CommonInfo):

    first_name = models.CharField(max_length=75)

    surname = models.CharField(max_length=75)

    class_score = models.ForeignKey(Course, related_name='course')

    exam_score = models.ForeignKey('House')

    ...........................

    def __unicode__(self):

        return u'%s %s' % (

            self.first_name, self.surname)

class Scores(models.Model):

    class_score = models.PositiveIntegerField()

    exam_score =  models.PositiveIntegerField()

    ...........................

I need to create view that would eventually produce a form with first_name, surname intact but the two foreign fields i.e class and exam scores as editable fields to allow users key in data and save(for named students) into the various models. I dont seem to find any concise way of doing this.

More efficient suggestions are welcome.

Thanks in advance!
