You can use modelForm.

for example in you form.py file, you can do something like this:

class addstaff(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model =new_staff
fields =('first_name', 'last_name', 'gender', 'date_of_birth')


and in your view.py you do something like this:

def newstaff(request):
if request.POST:
form =addstaff(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
return render_to_response("successful.html")
else:
form =addstaff
args={}
args.update(csrf(request))
args['form']=form
return render_to_response('addnewstaff.html', args)





Cheers

Hello,

you should use ModelForm; if the only problem you have is the CSS
properties, you may assign custom CSS classes to your widgets, and use
templates to render your fields individually.

Best,
Gergely
