Hi all,

How can the html form output be altered? In my case, I just want to make the output compliant with Bootstrap. It'd be really great if someone could share their experience in trying this.

Cheers for your reply.

We managed to do this in filter.py (see below), just not sure it's the most elegant way of doing it

class NoULCheckboxSelectMultiple(SelectMultiple):

    def render(self, name, value, attrs=None, choices=()):

        if value is None: value = []

        has_id = attrs and 'id' in attrs

        #attrs['style'] = 'display: none;'

        final_attrs = self.build_attrs(attrs, name=name)

        output = []

        # Normalize to strings

        str_values = set([force_unicode(v) for v in value])

        for i, (option_value, option_label) in enumerate(chain(self.choices, choices)):

            # If an ID attribute was given, add a numeric index as a suffix,

            # so that the checkboxes don't all have the same ID attribute.

            if has_id:

                final_attrs = dict(final_attrs, id='%s_%s' % (attrs['id'], i))

                label_for = u' for="%s"' % final_attrs['id']

            else:

                label_for = ''

            label_for = '%s  class="btn"' % label_for

            cb = CheckboxInput(final_attrs, check_test=lambda value: value in str_values)

            option_value = force_unicode(option_value)

            rendered_cb = cb.render(name, option_value)

            option_label = conditional_escape(force_unicode(option_label))

            output.append(u'<label%s>%s %s</label>' % (label_for, rendered_cb, option_label))

        return mark_safe(u'\n'.join(output))

Hi all,

[Robert M]

Use django-floppyforms

I'm affraid you are just making this more complicated.

Using django-floppyforms you will achieve all this by just

overriding one of these files: (creating your own in TEMPLATE_PATH/floppyforms/)
