So in the docs, it says one can set an initial value for form fields via the initial attribute, e.g. from the docs:
class CommentForm(forms.Form): ... name = forms.CharField(initial='Your name') ... url = forms.URLField(initial='http://') ... comment = forms.CharField() f = CommentForm(auto_id=False) The docs also state that the initial values will not be used as fallback values during a form validation. However, what I'm seeing is that when I actually do set initial='http://' for a URLField, either in the field definition above or via passing in a dictionary for dynamic initial values, if I then submit/POST the form without changing the URLField, it gives an error that the URL is invalid (of course 'http://' by itself is not a valid URL). Shouldn't the validation step know to ignore a form field value if it's the same as the initial= value?? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
