I have been searching and unable to find out why my script is not working correctly
If i take the required = False off of the image, the error "This field is required" get's thrown, else the 'image' field seems to not exist in the data as I now get 'No Data in Cleaned Data' error from the clean_image function. Changing my image_clean function to pass back self.cleaned_data['image'] no matter what: post_data: {u'overview': [u''], u'image': [{'content': '<omitted>', 'content-type': 'image/jpeg', 'filename': 'test.jpg'}], u'blurb': [u''], u'title': [u'Test 3']} cleaned_data: {'blurb': u'', 'image': None, 'overview': u'', 'public': False, 'team': [], 'title': u'Test 3'} So the image looks to be in my post_data passed to the form, but it doesn't seem to make it out of the cleaning process. ******* In my view ******** if pk: object_instance = get_object_or_404(model_class.objects.filter(parent_object=parent_object), pk=pk) else: object_instance = model_class() if request.POST or request.FILES: post_data = request.POST.copy() post_data.update(request.FILES) form = ImportedModelForm(data=post_data, instance=object_instance, parent_object=parent_object) if form.is_valid(): clean_data = form.cleaned_data error_list = form._errors return render_to_response('template.html', {'profile': request.user, 'staff': staffUser, parent_object parent_object 'form': form, 'clean_data': clean_data, 'error_list': error_list }) ********* In my forms ********* class ImportedModelForm(forms.ModelForm): image = forms.FileField(widget = forms.FileInput, required=False) def __init__(self, parent_object=None, *args, **kwargs): super(ImportedModelForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.fields['team'].queryset = Team.objects.filter(parent_object=parent_object) def clean_image(self): if self.cleaned_data.get('image'): image_data = self.cleaned_data['image'] return image_data else: raise forms.ValidationError(_('No Data in Cleaned Data')) class Meta: model = ImportedModel exclude = ('object1', 'object2') --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
