Question

I have a simple checkmark box on detail.html. When I press the “Send” button, it takes me to results.html. In Django, is it possible to bypass the “Send” button and get directed to results.html when I check and uncheck the checkbox?

Here’s detail.html
{% csrf_token %}

results.html looks like this:

<ul>
{% for choice in poll %}
    <li>{{ choice }} </li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>

views.py looks like this:

from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
from django.core.context_processors import csrf

def handle(request):
artists = {}
if request.method == 'POST':
    artists = request.POST.getlist('artists')
return render(request, 'polls/results.html', {'poll': artists})

urls.py looks like this:

from django.conf.urls import patterns, url
from django.conf import settings

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    url(r'^detail/$', 'django.views.generic.simple.direct_to_template', {'template': 'polls/detail.html'}),
    url(r'^results/$', 'polls.views.handle'),
)

This has nothing to do with Django. You need to write some Javascript that listens to the onclick event of the checkbox and changes location.href accordingly.
