Re: Simple input forms which show more than one row - easy/possible in django?

Hi Chris,

Once you've defined a model for your data, you can use a ModelForm [1] to
automatically generate a form for that model.

You might also want to check out the admin site [2], which displays data
in a tabular format similar to what you describe.
