Description

When overriding field declarations in a ModelForm, the "blank" attribute cannot be overridden.

For example, in the following paraphrased code ...

class MyModel(models.Model):
    my_field = models.IntegerField(blank=True)

class MyForm(ModelForm):
    my_field = models.IntegerField(blank=False)

... when the form is validated, my_field should be flagged as being required but it's allowed to be blank.

blank is not a valid keyword argument to a form field. Use required. Please ask questions of this nature on the django-users mailing list or in #django on freenode.
