Description
In this example:
class TestFormX(forms.Form):
test_one = forms.CharField(required=True)
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(TestFormX, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.fields['test_two'] = forms.IntegerField(required=False)
for key in (3,4):
self.fields[key] = forms.IntegerField(required=False, label='must have a label')
def sandbox2(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = TestFormX(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
print 'Form is valid'
else:
print form.errors
else:
form = TestFormX()
return render(request, 'xxx_sandbox2.html', {'form' : form}, status=200)
Form fields one and two act normally. Fields 3 and 4 appear to work, but
don't bind data from the request.POST. Thus, any input by the user is lost.
This was found on a dynamically built from.Form, where the database primary key was used as the field name.
