Hi,
I has a Django view which is accessed through an AJAX call. It's a pretty simple one — all it does is simply pass the request to a form object and save the data. Here's a snippet from my view:
form = AddSiteForm(request.user, request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
obj = form.save(commit=False)
obj.user = request.user
obj.save()
data['status'] = 'success'
data['html'] = render_to_string('site.html', locals(), context_instance=RequestContext(request))
return HttpResponse(simplejson.dumps(data), mimetype='application/json')
How do I get the currently saved object (including the internally generated id column) and pass it to the template?
Any help guys?
