I am trying to develop some functionality so that a user is able to
query by a color. I have a form drop-down menu where the user can
select one color type to appear. They are also able to leave it blank
so that it returns all the available colors. I have my form returning
the right results when a color type is selected. However, I am having
problems displaying the results when no color is selected (because I'm
using a filter).
Here is part of my view
if request['color'] == "---------------": # This means no color was
selected
mycolor = ColorCategory.objects.all()
else:
mycolor = request['color']
...
i = Choice.objects.get(id=h.id).style_set.filter(color_cat=mycolor)
////////////////////
So, as you can probably see when a color type is selected then mycolor
is set to request['color']. However, when a color is not selected
then mycolor is set to 'ColorCategory.objects.all(). Then later in my
view when I try to do a
filter(color_cat=mycolor)
It errors out because mycolor is equal to a list of ColorCategory
objects. I need mycolor to equal any ColorCategory number. Does
anybody know how to do that?
Thanks
