simple issue - radio buttons rendering

Question

i am stuck on this issue for a while.

i have a location in database which can be rated by user using star rating. Then i will save that rate into database. e.g. 1, or 2 till 5 since it is a 5-star-rating system. okay, this is fine.

but now i cannot render that number back to stars again, i want to show all locations which are in DB with their own rated stars. object.rated = 5

my vision for my views.py:

all_locations_from_db = Location.objects.all()
return render_to_response('resultpage.html',{'all':all_locations_from_db},context_instance=RequestContext(request))

and this would be my html:

{% if all %}
{% for every in all %}
    {{ how can i render that number back to 5-star form again?? }}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}

this is my problem now. can someone please help me? i didnot do anything yet, cos i dont know how to do it..

thanks a lot

If I understand correctly, you are looking for how to create radio button based rating and how to checked the right one.

If so:

{% if all %}
{% for every in all %}
    {% for i in "12345" %}
        {% if forloop.counter == every.rated %}
           <input type="radio" name="rate{{forloop.counter}}" value="{{forloop.counter}}" checked>{{forloop.counter}}
        {% else %}
           <input type="radio" name="rate{{forloop.counter}}" value="{{forloop.counter}}">{{forloop.counter}}
        {% endif %}
    {% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}

It is loop over a string! so I use forloop.counter instead of using "i" directly while doing the comparison. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1107737/numeric-for-loop-in-django-templates – lucemia Mar 18 '13 at 01:07

you need to fetch the rating along with locations from the DB. Then iterate this list in the for loop and show the rating for each item in your page.
