Django Form Submit Button
This is a template for a minimal HTML form (docs):
<form method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
{{ form.as_p }}
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
Put that under <PROJECT>/templates/MyForm.html
and then replace 'DIRS': []
in <PROJECT>/<PROJECT>/settings.py
with the following:
'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "templates")],
Code like this can then be used to serve your form to the user when he does a GET request, and process the form when he POSTs it by clicking on the submit button (docs):
from django.http import HttpResponse, HttpResponseNotFound
from django.shortcuts import render
from . import forms
def my_form(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = forms.MyForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
return HttpResponse('Yay valid')
else:
form = forms.MyForm()
return render(request, 'MyForm.html', {'form': form})
<input type="submit" value="Gogogo!" />
