Support broken for custom widgets in inlines Jquery based Add new <model type>

[Brillgen Developers]

If one of the fields in an inline has a custom widget which uses javascript, then the Add New <Model Name> jquery based JS function is unable to render the widget correctly even though the widget works and renders fine with existing inlines or with inlines which are created using the extra option in Admin

This report is a bit too vague. If you're experiencing an issue, please reopen and provide a more detailed use case, or even better some code we can test. Also, it'd be useful if you could track when (if) this actually got broken.

I'll work on extracting the code so that it can be presented here but I think the issue has been described pretty clearly to someone familiar with the Admin and/or its internals.

This got broken in Django 1.1/1.2 when the new functionality of adding inlines on-the-fly with javascript was introduced.

We have a custom widget we use to populate FK fields which works perfectly well with the Django Admin inlines when they have been created by the 'extra' parameter in the admin.
The widget does not work because its javascript event is not mapped to the new inline that has been created with javascript.

The bug is that the javascript add new inline functionality should support custom widgets as well...if it does, it's not obvious and not documented (AFAIK).

Please see approach/patch proposed in #15760 addresses this issue for you. For now I'm marking this as a dupe of that which more clearly describes the issue.

Sorry "Please see IF THE appraoch/patch..." is what I meant to write above.

Yes, I had that figured...that ticket does delve into the issue better technically...and yes, that approach should work...I am trying it out over the weekend and will update that ticket..Thanks for your help.
