Re: Django Forms

class PollForm(forms.Form):

    answer = forms.ChoiceField(

        widget=forms.RadioSelect,

        choices=cool_choices)

    def __init__(self, poll, *args, **kwargs):

        super(PollForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)

        b = poll.choice_set.all()

        list_choice = []

        for i in range(len(b)):

            list_choice.append(b[i].choice)

        list_choice = zip(list_choice, list_choice)

        self.fields['answer'].choices = list_choice

        self.fields['answer'].label = poll.question

        self.fields[poll.pk] = self.fields['answer']

        del self.fields['answer']

So I managed to fix it by creating a name tag for each of the radioselect options. I thought self.fields['answers'].widget.name would let me set the tag but that did not work as there was no default name tag. So I googled and I found that the last two lines made it work

        self.fields[poll.pk] = self.fields['answer']

        del self.fields['answer']

It set the name tag as the pk for the poll. I honestly don't understand how that works. Could you please explain how the last two lines work?

Since each form is set to only allow you to select 1 multiple choice option, if I add many forms in one page, I can only select one option overall. So if I answer question 1, I can't answer any of the other questions without it unselecting question 1's answer.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

If that's the case you are not formatting the form correctly. Each form set should contain it's own radio group of answers so that an answer may be selected for each one. Post up the template code you're using.
