Hi
This seems a very complicated solution to a fairly basic problem unless I
am missing something

Create a regular ListView only showing the fields you want and then add an
ordinary form field to the template to input your search term (I would
usually include it with pagination controls)
In your view you can then filter the queryset on the search term like this
#views.py
def get_queryset(self):
qs = super(MyListView, self).get_queryset()
if 'SEARCH' in self.request.GET:
search = self.request.GET['SEARCH']
qs =
qs.filter(Q(field1__icontains=search)|Q(field2__icontains=search))
return qs
There is more on "Complex lookups with Q objects" in
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/topics/db/queries/
