Karen,
Thanks for the thorough explanation. I really appreciate it. What I
took from it is that if I'm using a ModelForm, Django should return a
validation error for a duplicate value. However, for my scenario, I
*am* using a ModelForm. Here's a snippet:
### Model ###
class School(models.Model):
url = models.SlugField(max_length=50, unique=True)
name = models.CharField(max_length=255)
...
### Form ###
class SchoolForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = School
fields = ('url', 'name')
### View ###
def new_school(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = SchoolForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
new_school craps out with an IntegrityError exception any time I have
a duplicate value. Any additional thoughts?
