This is what Rails prefers but I think it is only added for checkbox fields. > Do we use the management form for anything other than counting forms in the > formset? Yes, we currently have the concept of initial forms even for bound formsets. This does not mirror form behaviour as bound forms don't have the concept of initial data. I'd like to get rid of that as well but Russell is not sure whether there are cases that require initial forms to work correctly. -- Patryk Zawadzki I solve problems. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)" group.
