Description (last modified by )
A forms that doesn't have ordered prefix will not be process. On the sample the formset is expecting to process choices-0, choices-1, and choices-2 forms while choices-4, and choices-5 forms will be ignore but it should be process because the 3 forms we are referring here are the choices-0, choices-4, choices-5 and it should return False on formset.is_valid() since the choices-4 is invalid while choices-5 is considered valid since it is blank. As a result the formset is valid because it treats blank forms as valid which are choices-1 and choices-2.
>>> data = { ... 'choices-TOTAL_FORMS': '3', # the number of forms rendered ... 'choices-INITIAL_FORMS': '0', # the number of forms with initial data ... 'choices-0-choice': 'Calexico', ... 'choices-0-votes': '100', ... 'choices-4-choice': 'The Decemberists', ... 'choices-4-votes': '', # missing value ... 'choices-5-choice': '', ... 'choices-5-votes': '', ... } >>> formset = ChoiceFormSet(data, auto_id=False, prefix='choices') >>> formset.is_valid() True
