The long version: I ran into a problem with http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/forms/modelforms/#the-save-method because I was passing my form def an additional varible with which to limit the options of drop down box. This works fine until you are also doing a ModelForm based update and need to pass data, your instance *and* an object that you want to filter with. I had to in the source to see what the arg's name actually was. PS. Loving Django so f-ing much right now... :)" closed Documentation 1.0 wontfix Unreviewed 0 0 0 0 0 0
