Need to create an edit box connected to one table field

I need to create an edit box called handicapped with three drop down options on the display:

  0 - none

  1 - Mental

  2 - Phyiscal

and connect it to the handicapped field init(11) in the family database

I know I have to do something like:

            if form['handicapped'].data == 1 or 2:

                q = context['child_filter'].filter(Q(handicapped=handicapped_dict[request.POST['handicapped']]))

# start of output using search parameters

            if q.count() > 1:

              search_message = "There are %s children that match your selection of %s"  %  (q.count(), request.POST['gender'])

            else:

              search_message = "There is 1 child that matches your selection of %s"  %  (request.POST['gender'])

            if q.count() > 1:

               search_message = ", age: %s"  %  (request.POST['age'])

            else:

               search_message = ", age: %s"  % (request.POST['age'])

            if form.data['handicapped'] is 'Physical' or 'Mental':

               if q.count() > 1:

                  search_message = ", is %s handicapped" %  (request.POST['handicapped'])

               elif q.count() == 1:

                  search_message = ", is %s handicapped" % (request.POST['handicapped'])

            else:

                search_message = ", are %s handicapped" % (request.POST['handicapped'])

but it doesn't _work at all_.

The database is defined all right, I should say.

I get lots of different types of errors - sorry I can't include them now, but definitely not week if the problem is still outstanding.
