Bug in admin change_form template produces javascript error when adding new object with first_field of type DateTimeField. — at Initial Version

Reported by: mkelley33 Owned by: nobody
Component: contrib.admin Version: 1.2

Description

Scenario:

  1. User fires up admin site in browser (bug is not browser specific), and goes to admin/app_name/model_name/
  2. User clicks the add button in upper-right-hand corner.
  3. The change_form.html template is rendered, and ready to add a new object.
  4. Then the user's browser complains and throws an error, because the user (for whatever--probably strange and arguably wrong--reason) made created_datetime of type DateTimeField be the first_field.

Error or Bug:

Error: document.getElementById("id_created_date") is null
Source File: http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/app_name/model_name/add/

Cause:

The DateTimeField outputs two fields:

  1. created_date_0
  2. created_date_1

Solution:

See attached patch file.
