Code from views.py:
def feedback(request):
if request.method == "POST":
form = CommentForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
else:
print("form.errors:", form.errors)
else:
form = CommentForm()
articles = Comment.objects.all()
ResponseDict = {"articles": articles, "form": form}
return render_to_response("feedback.html", ResponseDict,
context_instance = RequestContext(request))
I've tried this and several modifications from answers to similar questions, but nothing works. When I press submit button, all form fields in html become empty.
EDIT: code from feedback.html:
{% extends "base.html" %}
{% block main %}
<table>
<form action="/feedback/" method="POST">
{% csrf_token %}
<div class="article">
<label for="name">
Ваше имя:
</label>
<br />
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" size="40" class="inputbox" value="" />
<br />
<!-- class="inputbox required" -->
<textarea class="WithoutTinymce" cols="50" rows="10" name="text" id="text"></textarea>
<br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Отправить">
</div> <!-- /article -->
</form>
</table>
{% include "articles.html" %}
{% endblock %}
I can also paste code from base.html if needed.
EDIT2: minimized code from base.html:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="cs" lang="cs">
...
<body id="body-id" onload="loaded()">
<!-- Main -->
<div id="main" class="box">
<div id="page" class="box">
<div id="page-in" class="box">
<!-- Content -->
<div id="content">
{% block main %}
{% endblock %}
<hr class="noscreen" />
</div> <!-- /content -->
</div> <!-- /page-in -->
</div> <!-- /page -->
</div> <!-- /Main -->
</body>
</html>

In your template you are not making use of form passed by the view.
You can update part of your template as (assuming your field names in the form are first_field and second_field.
<form action="/feedback/" method="POST">
{% csrf_token %}
<div class="article">
<label for="name">
Ваше имя:
</label>
<br />
{{ form.first_field.errors }}
{{ form.first_field.label_tag }}: {{ form.first_field }}
<br />
<!-- class="inputbox required" -->
{{ form.second_field.errors }}
{{ form.second_field.label_tag }}: {{ form.second_field }}
<br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Отправить">
</div> <!-- /article -->
</form>

You need to pass the form back to the template; and you need to render the form in the template as per jpic's link.
The following should render your form errors:
from django.shortcuts import render, redirect
def feedback(request):
ctx = {}
ctx['articles'] = Comment.objects.all()
if request.method == "POST":
form = CommentForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
return redirect('/thanks')
else:
ctx['form'] = form
return render(request, 'feedback.html', ctx)
else:
ctx['form'] = CommentForm()
return render(request, "feedback.html", ctx)
In your template:
{% extends "base.html" %}
{% block main %}
<table>
<form action="/feedback/" method="POST">
{% csrf_token %}
<div class="article">
{{ form }}
<br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Отправить">
</div> <!-- /article -->
</form>
</table>
{% include "articles.html" %}
{% endblock %}
Easy, your template has this:
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" size="40" class="inputbox" value="" />
So value attribute of the input tag is always empty.
Same goes for the textarea, which should always render empty:
<textarea class="WithoutTinymce" cols="50" rows="10" name="text" id="text"></textarea>
