Question

In html file I have this code, which print out information of golfelement such as golfname, changenamefee, url_1net, url_golfagora, url_juchi. I also get the golfelement ID by {{golfelement.key().id()}}. There is a button 1net, if I click the button, it will request myapp/affiliate

{% for golfelement in displaygolf %}
          <tr>
              <td></td>
              <td>{{ golfelement.golfname }}</td>
              <td>{{ golfelement.changenamefee }}</td>
              <td>
                  <a href="{{golfelement.url_1net}}">1net | </a>
                  <a href="{{golfelement.url_golfagora}}">Golfagora | </a>
                  <a href="{{golfelement.url_juchi}}">Juchi</a>
                  {{golfelement.key().id()}}
                  <form method="LINK" action="{{url_for('myapp/affiliate')}}">
                      <input type="submit" value="1net">
                  </form>
              </td>

          </tr>
          {% endfor %}

I want to send {{golfelement.key().id()}} to a function affiliate(request, idnum) in views.py when I click button.

def affiliate(request, idnum):
    golfe = Golf.get_by_id(idnum)
    return render_to_response('myapp/affiliate.html',{'affiliate': golfe})    

Please help me how to modify the html file to send the parameter {{golfelement.key().id()}}

Answer 1

<form method="GET" action="{{ url_for('myapp.affiliate') }}">
    <input type="hidden" name="idnum" value="{{ golfelement.key().id() }} />
    <input type="submit" value="1net" />
</form>

Then your view:

def affiliate(request, idnum=None):
    idnum = int(idnum or request.args.get('idnum'))
    golfe = Golf.get_by_id(idnum)
    return render_to_response('myapp/affiliate.html',{'affiliate': golfe})
