You can create a loop that creates these fields automagically. {% for ticket in zone.tickets %} {{ ticket.id }} <input ... name="ticket_count_{{ ticket.id }}" /> {% endfor %} in your view you can get it with: ticket_name = "ticket_count_%s" %(ticket.id) tc = request.POST[ticket_name] # validate the data as an int, if the form class doesn't define # ticket_count_XXXXXXX to clean it for you. form = myForm try: ticket_count = int(tc) except: # set form errors. form.errors = {ticket_name: "Invalid data inputed for ticket count"} if not form.errors: # now validate with the form data as normal, checking again for errors. form.is_valid(): ... if your form class generates the ticket_count_XXXXXX, you can then just use the form api as normal, validate and clean then use form.cleaned_data, the form api won't really care if you generate the html or it does [1].
