As Daniel said, I dont' think also that the entire view is that, but
if it helps, I'll let you a piece of my code for a form (gpl, no
problem if you copy it).
@permission_required('spaces.add_space')
def create_space(request):
"""
Create new spaces. In this view the author field is automatically filled
so we can't use a generic view.
"""
space = Space()
form = SpaceForm(request.POST or None, request.FILES or None,
instance=space)
if request.POST:
form_uncommited = form.save(commit=False)
form_uncommited.author = request.user
if form.is_valid():
form_uncommited.save()
# We add the created spaces to the user allowed spaces
space = get_object_or_404(Space, name=form_uncommited.name)
request.user.profile.spaces.add(space)
return redirect('/spaces/' + space.url)
return render_to_response('spaces/space_add.html',
{'form': form},
context_instance=RequestContext(request))
