If I understand what you're trying to do, you want to pair one
list ("List A", which you're iterating over in your loop) with
items in a 2nd list ("List B", your notes_list above) so you're
trying something like
view:
render_to_response('foo.html', {
'lista': lista,
'listb': notes_list
})
template:
{% for item in lista %}
{{ item }}
<p>{{ listb.forloop.counter0 }}</p> <!-- fail -->
{% endfor %}
If this is the case, it sounds like you want to use the Python
"zip()" call to pair up the items:
new view:
render_to-response('foo.html', {
'pairs': zip(lista, notes_list)
})
0.96 and earlier version template:
{% for pair in pairs %}
{{ pair.0 }}
<p>{{ pair.1 }}</p>
{% endfor %}
development version template:
{% for itema, itemb in pairs %}
{{ itema }}
<p>{{ itemb }}</p>
{% endfor %}
Hope this helps,
