Here is my code:
#in models.py
class Instructor(models.Model):
prefix = models.CharField(max_length=50, blank=True, null=True)
first_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
middle_name = models.CharField(max_length=50, blank=True,
null=True)
last_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
suffix = models.CharField(max_length=30, blank=True, null=True)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.last_name + ' ' + self.first_name
class Student(models.Model):
instructors = models.ManyToManyField(Instructor)
first_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
middle_name = models.CharField(max_length=50, blank=True,
null=True)
last_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
suffix = models.CharField(max_length=30, blank=True, null=True)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.last_name + ' ' + self.first_name
#in views.py
def show_student(request, id)
student = Student.objects.get(id=id)
instructors = student.instructors.all()
return render_to_response('student.html', locals())
#in student.html
...
<ul>
{% for instructor in instructors %}
<li>{{ instructor.first_name }}</li> #there is no value output
here
{% endif %}
</ul>
Thoughts?
