Capture the results of multiple radiobox selection Django - django

Question

Total newb here...
I'm making a poll where I display 5 questions on a page. Each question has 4 radioboxes.
In my django template, I'm looping through a container (latest_poll_list) of all my questions (poll):
<form action="/first/vote/" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
{% for poll in latest_poll_list %}
<li>{{ poll.question }}</li>
{% for choice in poll.choice_set.all %}
<input type="radio" name="choice{{poll.id}}" id="choice{{ forloop.counter }}" value="{{ choice.id }}" />
<label for="choice{{ forloop.counter }}">{{ choice.choice }}</label><br />
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
<input type="submit" value="Vote" />
</form>
Lastly how do I return results from multiple questions? Do I have to put the choice+poll.id into an array/container?
Also, how does django know that forloop.counter refers to the inner loop and not the outer loop?
Thanks for your patience while I ramp up!

Answer 1

I would consider using a formset or a model formset.
and the forloop.counter is for the inner most forloop, however you can pass the counter from an outer forloop into the inner forloop using the {% with %} tag:
{% for object in objects %}
<label>{{ forloop.counter }}</label>
{% with outside_counter=forloop.counter %}
{% for subobject in object %}
<p>outside: {{ outside_counter }} inside: {{ forloop.counter }}</p>
{% endfor %}
{% endwith %}
{% endfor %}
results:
<label>0</label>
<p>outside: 0 inside: 0</p>
<p>outside: 0 inside: 1</p>
<label>1</label>
<p>outside: 1 inside: 0</p>
<p>outside: 1 inside: 1</p>
