Hi all,
I've fairly new to django but i'm loving it!
I've got some draggable panels on a site and want to save their
positions so when a user logs back in, the panels are in the same
place when they last hit the save button. What I'm doing is (using
jQuery) retrieving the id's of the panels, putting them into an array,
and using ajax to pass the array to the server:
var data = []
$('#left > div').each(function() {
data.push($(this).attr('id'));
});
var Left = 'Left<br />';
for(x in data)
{
Left += data[x] + " in pos " + x + "<br />";
}
Left += "<br />";
$('#var_test').html(Left);
$.post("/post_test/",{'data[]': data });
Using firebug, I can see that the data is being posted correctly.
Below is the view (abridged):
def post_handler(request):
post_text = request.POST.getlist('data')
user = User.objects.get(id=2) # for debugging purposes
for x in range( len(post_text)-1 ):
name = post_text[x]
panel =
user.panels_set.get(name__istartswith=name,side="left")
panel.order = x
panel.save()
The problem is its not saving to the database, I'm assuming it to do
with the way I'm accessing the POST data, but I can't work it out.
I've tried post_text = request.POST['data'], but that didn't work
either,
I really am at a loose end with this...please help!!
