Re: need to find out if someone is an orphan when I have mother_alive and father_alive fields in the database

Hi Eileen,

What is the error message?

By the way, one way to improve your code readability would be to use form.is_valid() :

For instance:

new_data = form.is_valid()

Hope this helps,

Etienne

Hi,

I need to find out if someone is an orphan when I have mother_alive and father_alive fields in the database. Stepfathers, and stepmothers etc aren't counted when determining if someone is an orphan, only their birth mother, and birth father.

I tried 

  if form['orphaned'].data == True:

             q = context['child_filter'].filter(Q(request.POST.get('mother_alive') == 0 and request.POST.get('father_alive') == 0))

but I got an error on it.

does anyone know what I did wrong?
