Hi All, I'm trying to create a form on a web page where the user can select choices from multiple drop-down lists (<select> HTML elements) and then submit them all at once with a single submit button. Is this possible?
I don't want to use a single <select> element with the "multiple" attribute because the list of options may be quite long, and I find it quite clunky for the user to have to hold ctrl/command/shift down while clicking on multiple options in such a long list (it's easy to accidentally release one of the keys and have to start over, etc.). I've also used this <http://www.meadmiracle.com/dlb/DLBPlugin.aspx> for something similar in the past, but I want to limit the number of selected options to only four at once (which is another reason I also don't want to use <select> with "multiple"). So does anyone know how I could make something like the following work, both in terms of HTML and views.py (and without JS)? <form> <select> <option>one</option> <option>two</option> <option>buckle</option> <option>shoe</option> </select> <select> <option>three</option> <option>four</option> <option>shut</option> <option>door</option> </select> <input type="submit" value="Submit"/> </form> I'm guessing that in views.py it would be something like request.GET.getlist('q'), but as far as I know you're supposed to give each <select> element a different name, right? thanks, Guillaume -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
