I'm fairly new to django, still getting my feet wet. I want to have a dropdown menu (django seems to call this a select box). I read this:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/fields/#django.db.models.Field.choices So I did this: class EventsTable(models.Model): EVENT_TYPE_CHOICES = ( ('Event Created', 'EventCreated'), ('Event Changed', 'EventChanged'), ) message = models.CharField("Event Type", max_length=12, choices=EVENT_TYPE_CHOICES) But I get a standard text entry field where I can type in anything. I did more googling, and I read a lot of confusing stuff about having to use javascrpt, ajax, CSS, etc. I read some pages about using a ChoiceField, but that is not part of the model class (it's in the forms class). I'm not sure how that would be used with a class that inherits form models. What am I missing here? I can't imagine something as common as this would be hard in django. Shouldn't the first thing I did work? TIA! -larry -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
