Problem with my view or template (DRIVES ME NUTS)
leaks
my view: (I think the problem is here)
def push(request, pk):
if request.method == 'POST':
entry = Entry.objects.get(pk=pk)
entry.pushes +=1
entry.save()
My template:
<ul>
{% for entry in entries.object_list %}
<li><a href="{{ entry.link }}" >{{ entry.title }}</a>
Posted on {{ entry.posted }} by {{ entry.submitter }} | pushed {{ entry.pushes }} time(s).
{% if user.is_authenticated %}
#or maybe here...
<form action="." method="POST">
{% csrf_token %}
<input type="submit" value="Push">
</form>
</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
This is my first project and i haven't really understood how GET and POST request's work with models...
Thanks in advance :)

first of all use if request.POST, second pehaps you should pass the pk as part of the action URL.
Do you get any errors or anything?

> no, no errors get displayed... Just nothing happens.
Absolutely and literally 'nothing happens'? Really?
Does the browser submit the form, django receive a request and render
a response? I would definitely class that as 'something' and not
'nothing'.
We can only help you if you help us. You need to explain precisely
what happens, and what you expected to happen. Saying 'nothing
happens' is nonsense, and perhaps if you had investigated what was
actually happening, you may have understood why it didn't happen as
you expected, rather than expecting us to magically deduce both things
from the ether.

Since action='.', it appears that you are using the same view to get
the form and to
post (which is fine), but each case must return a response for the
prowser, presumably
rendered from the same template. The render_to_response() shortcut is
your friend
here.
Also, while not required, it is usual for a successful post to
actually return a redirect to
a separate success view (helps guard, I believe, against inadvertent
double submits).

I made the view as above and the main idea is to add +1 to my "pushes"(my model has a pushes field wich is an integer field). Plus I don't want it to leave the page. That's why i didn't add a render_to_response()
I created the form as above, and when i click on the submit button it doesn't do anything at all, well it shows it refreshed the page but it didn't add a +1 neither an error occurs
