I have the following form input in my template that displays questions from the database.

<input type="text" name="qus[{{ question.id }}]" id="qus" value="{{ question.quest }}" />

I created my Django form with:

class QuestionForm(forms.Form):
      qus = SimpleArrayField(forms.CharField(max_length = 50))

Each time I submit the form, it does'nt work. It seems the form is not valid

 MyQuestionForm = QuestionForm(request.POST)
 if request.method == "POST" and MyQuestionForm.is_valid():

How can I create the form properly and loop through request.POST['qus'] to retrieve all the values when I submit the form? Please help.

  • Thanks Shayan, but I don't think this help. This is the html array input field: <input type="text" name="qus[{{ question.id }}]" id="qus" value="{{ question.quest }}" /> which means it will have array variable such as qus[1], qus[2], qus[3] etc. How do I retrieve the values in the array in Django?

  • Well it depends on your queryset and this is not the exact answer but can give some hints. Commented May 1, 2022 at 11:04
  • Thank you. I rename the input field to qus[] instead of the passing value to is as in qus[{{ question.id }}]. I got it working with qus[]. Commented May 1, 2022 at 11:54
