Hi Julio,
Thanks, now is clear.
Ok, I created models correctly and createa book in admin interface. Now
I can create chapters to add this book.
Now I want to learn how to create an interface that allows an user to
add a new book, click on next button and add chapters to this book that
is selected by default in book select list.
Can you point me in a tutorial, or document?
Thanks in advance,
Germano

Hi Germano,
When you use "ManyToMany", you're saying "any book can have any
chapter and vice versa". That's obviously what you don't want. What
you want is "A book has a closed set of chapters". This is done by
thinking a bit on the other way with Django: Instead of saying "There
is a list of chapters of this book", you say "The chapter belongs to a
single book" with a foreign key:
class Book(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=250)
class Chapters(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=250)
text = models.TextField()
book = models.ForeignKey(Book)
Now a chapter can belong only to a book.

Hi,
I'm Germano from Italy. I'm new of django.
Probably this discussion has many many examples, but I can't find
my situation.
I have two models, Book and Chapters.
These are simple models, I need them only for educational purpose.
class Book(models.Model):
title=models.CharField(max_length=250)
chapters = models.ManyToManyField('Chapters')
class Chapters(models.Model):
title_of_chapter = models.CharField(max_length=250)
text=models.TextField()
Now, in admin interface I can add chapters on a new book and it
works fine.
So, whdn I try to add a second book I can see chapters of book I
added previously.
When I add a new book I want see only chapter of this book. List
must be empty if I'm adding a new book.
It's very simple, but I can't find a way to make it working.
I tried somethings, such as
chapters=
models.ManyToManyField('Chapters',limit_choices_to=Q('book__title'=title))
But this not works.
I know Chapters has book_set, that is the set of references for a
chapter.
There is a way to make it working?
