Re: How to create a formset that contains forms with a dropdown? (Crucial)

Hi xavier,

Apologies for the confusion.

What I am trying to achieve would be deal type having a m2m relationship to sales items. I don't like the m2m widget, so I thought I use formsets with dropdowns in them. The idea is good, somce the user would choose how many dropdowns he wants and point each to a salesitem. but I don't think it's possible with plain django.

I will have a look at this extension. Hopefully it solves it.

Thanks,
Houman
