loop a ChoiceField SelectMultiple form in the view as post

[dk]

i made a from

lista = (("1","one"), ("2", "two"))

pending = forms.ChoiceField(widget=forms.SelectMultiple, choices=lista)

I do get it as post method.

I do get true with is_valid()

it renders properly in the website.

but when I press the submit button.

and I am printing the form.cleaned_data["pending"]

its just empty =(

so I try  to do

for I in form.cleaned_data["pending"]

    print i

and its also empty

should I get a list out of the multiselect form? 

I just want to print all the lines that are in there.  even if they are not selected.   I want to retrieve the 1 and 2 in the view.

might be a missing part that I am not doing correct.

i might simplify lol i didnt even understand.

after i validate and clean a ChoiceField how do i us it?  
does it return a directory saying whats selected?

I made a quick project with an app,  that might be easier to see.

To tell you the truth I'm not quite sure what are you trying to accomplish, but for starters if you have a select multiple widget then your form field should be a forms.MultipleChoiceField

this is what I am trying to do.

http://www.jquerybyexample.net/2012/05/how-to-move-items-between-listbox-using.html

I post what I have so far. move items between 2 multiselects. and when submit I want to retrieve what's inside each, I don't care if the items are selected or not. I just want to know what's in one and what's on the other.

that way I can do stuff with the items in one list, and do other stuff to the items in the other list.

Vijay =) I appreciate the help thanks again.
