Re: How to introduce a text area as a field of a database entry

CharField is for "short" strings mostly under 255 of length. TextField is for "unlimited" text (the length depends of the database engine). If you just want a textarea for the CharField then you will need to replace the default widget. You'll need to read a little about Forms to change the widget of the field (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/ref/forms/widgets/) and the Admin interface to see how to set a custom Form.

My model.py

##model.py

from django.db import models

class Text(models.Model):

           pag= models.CharField(max_length=10)  

           content = models.CharField(max_length=500) 

##should i put something different in the previous line to have a textarea in the admin view of this field?

           def __unicode__(self):

                       return self.pag

thanks Joy
