Hi dimitri
Well, I am not sure this is a good suggestion but the way to get
around
any template code would be to do it in the query.
Have you tried something like this:
your_list = [] # i don't know how to initialise an empty query set
authors = Author.objects.order_by('name')
for author in authors:
books = Book.objects.filter(author__name__exact=author.name)
your_list.append(author)
for book in books:
your_list.append(book)
But this is not so good I think.
nausikaa
