Howdy Matt!
Here is a small, complete working sample. When you initially load the
page it just displays the choices and prompts you to select a value and
click submit. When you submit it, it redisplays the form and then
displays what choice you selected.
urls.py:
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
urlpatterns = patterns('test.views',
(r'^get_select_value/$','get_select_value'),
)
views.py:
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
def get_select_value(request):
if "sample" in request.POST:
selected_value = request.POST["sample"]
else:
selected_value = None
return render_to_response("get_select_value.html",
{'selected_value' : selected_value})
get_select_value.html (the template):
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<title>get_select_value</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="." method="post">
<p>
<select name="sample">
<option value="A">A</option>
<option value="B">B</option>
<option value="C">C</option>
<option value="D">D</option>
<option value="E">E</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</p>
</form>
{% if selected_value %}
<p>You picked {{selected_value}}.</p>
{% else %}
<p>Choose the value you want and click <em>Submit</em>.</p>
{% endif %}
</body>
</html>
