Question

first of all excuse me for my lameness in django, python and html.

I added widget to html, and I want to fill the items from the database. I tried the following but its not working, it shows only the obvious (‘ALL’ item):

HTML:

<select name=\"accountName\" >
    <option value=\"ALL\">ALL</option>
    {% for item in select_items %}
    <option value=\"'+item.accountName+'\">'+item.accountName+'</option>
    {% endfor %}
</select>

Python:

class StartPage(webapp.RequestHandler):
    def get(self):
    select_items = db.GqlQuery( "SELECT * FROM Registration" )
    self.response.out.write(template.render("tst.html", {'select_items': select_items}))

Note, the DB do contains stuff,and not empty.
Thanx

I am not a django expert, but I think your templatehas some errors.

<option value=\"'+item.accountName+'\">'+item.accountName+'</option>

should be

<option value="{{ item.accountName }}">{{ item.accountName  }}</option>
