I have a rows or words like this:

    not exactly sure how you want the user to select each row, but here’s a simple example if you want to use a checkbox, letting the user make a selection from a defined list in the index page and process it however you want in the vote view (stored in the choices list variable):

    in your views.py:

    def index(request):
    mylist = ["hello", "ok", "there", "hi"]
    return render_to_response('testing/index.html', {'mylist': mylist}, context_instance=RequestContext(request))

def vote(request):
    choices = request.POST.getlist('choice')
    return render_to_response('testing/vote.html', {'choices': choices})

    and in the index.html:

    <form action="/vote/" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
{% for choice in mylist %}
    <input type="checkbox" name="choice" id="choice{{ forloop.counter }}" value="{{ choice }}" />
    <label for="choice{{ forloop.counter }}">{{ choice}}</label><br />
{% endfor %}
<input type="submit" value="Vote" />
</form>

    and for example in the vote.html:

    <html>
<table border="1">
{% for x in choices %}
<tr><td>{{ x }}</td></tr>
{% endfor %}
</table>
</html>
