I'm sorry, I really don't understand what you're trying to do. How do
you mean, iterate through? Points is an integer field, there is only
one value.

If you want me to help you, please post your entire views.py,
models.py and template on dpaste.com. Post the link here, along with a
full explanation of what you're trying to do, and what you expect the
output to be.

I want to iterate thru the points property of the Song object, from
models.py, how can I output that from the views to the db?  Below is
from models.py

class Song(models.Model):
poll = models.ForeignKey(Poll)
name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
points = models.IntegerField()

def __unicode__(self):
return self.song

I want to iterate thru the points property of the Song object, from
models.py, how can I output that from the views to the db?  Below is
from models.py

class Song(models.Model):
poll = models.ForeignKey(Poll)
name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
points = models.IntegerField()

def __unicode__(self):
return self.song

But what is points? Where is it coming from? As the traceback shows
you, you haven't set the points variable anywhere. Where are you
expecting it to come from?

Ok, I got rid of the pointx variables, replaced them with the
following and restarted the server.

selected_song_set.points = points
selected_song_set.save()

Is there any reason you couldn't actually post the traceback - which
shows exactly where the error happens - instead of this load of random
code snippets? I don't know if anyone will be bothered to read through
it all to find out what's wrong, especially when there's no way your
code could run as posted (where do all those pointx variables come
from?)

Please, post the traceback, and the minimal amount of actual code that
produces the error.
