But I further played around with the above setup and have some intriguing observations.
Instead of adding a 'note_l1' object, I tried adding a 'emailid' object. The view function worked as expected. The differences between the 'note_l1' and 'emailid' objects, as far as I could see are : 1. 'emailid' is a plain model whereas 'note_l1' is inherited from an abstract model. 2. 'note_l1' involves genericRelations Yes, it is action = "." indeed in the template The details (Version 2.0) are here : http://dpaste.com/hold/53887/ My Django version 0.97-pre-SVN-7543 Hope you can spend some more time on this.
