    166165The ``save()`` method 
    167166--------------------- 
    168167 
    169 Every form produced by ``ModelForm`` also has a ``save()`` method. This 
    170 method creates and saves a database object from the data bound to the form. 
    171 A subclass of ``ModelForm`` also requires a model instance as the first 
    172 arument to its constructor. For example:: 
     168Every form produced by ``ModelForm`` also has a ``save()`` 
     169method. This method creates and saves a database object from the data 
     170bound to the form. A subclass of ``ModelForm`` can accept an existing 
     171model instance as the keyword argument ``instance``; if this is 
     172supplied, ``save()`` will update that instance. If it's not supplied, 
     173``save()`` will create a new instance of the specified model:: 
    173174 
    174175    # Create a form instance from POST data. 
    175     >>> a = Article() 
    176     >>> f = ArticleForm(a, request.POST) 
     176    >>> f = ArticleForm(request.POST) 
    177177 
    178178    # Save a new Article object from the form's data. 
    179179    >>> new_article = f.save() 
    180180 
     181    # Create a form to edit an existing Article. 
     182    >>> a = Article.objects.get(pk=1) 
     183    >>> f = ArticleForm(instance=a) 
     184 
    181185Note that ``save()`` will raise a ``ValueError`` if the data in the form 
    182186doesn't validate -- i.e., ``if form.errors``. 
    183187 
     
    201205``save_m2m()`` to save the many-to-many form data. For example:: 
    202206 
    203207    # Create a form instance with POST data. 
    204     >>> a = Author() 
    205     >>> f = AuthorForm(a, request.POST) 
     208    >>> f = AuthorForm(request.POST) 
    206209 
    207210    # Create, but don't save the new author instance. 
    208211    >>> new_author = f.save(commit=False) 
     
    222225For example:: 
    223226 
    224227    # Create a form instance with POST data. 
    225     >>> a = Author() 
    226     >>> f = AuthorForm(a, request.POST) 
     228    >>> f = AuthorForm(request.POST) 
    227229 
    228230    # Create and save the new author instance. There's no need to do anything else. 
    229231    >>> new_author = f.save() 
     
    277279    manually set anyextra required fields:: 
    278280     
    279281        instance = Instance(required_field='value') 
    280         form = InstanceForm(instance, request.POST
     282        form = InstanceForm(request.POST, instance=instance
    281283        new_instance = form.save() 
    282284 
    283285        instance = form.save(commit=False)
