I'm using an ifequal tag in my django template inside a loop where atleast one of the items should equal the other at some point in the loop but for some reason it never displays what it should. I was wondering if there are any weird cases that i should know about.
I have a list of int city ID's that should be checked as check boxes. so as i loop through all of the cities, for each one i loop through the ones that are supposed to be checked to see if the equal anywhere in the list. But for whatever reason none of them ever match. I verified that the data is right using the django shell, so i know its there, i think i'm missing some small detail with how i'm using it. Heres the code:
View:
def editprof(request):
try:
if request.session['id']:
loggedin = True
except KeyError:
loggedin = False
try:
citylist = CityList.objects.all()
userid = request.session['id']
user = MemberProfile.objects.get(pk=userid)
p = decrypt_pwd(user.Password)
pflags = user.PublicVisibleFlags
log_val(pflags[0])
pflags = pflags.split(',')
mflags = user.MemberVisibleFlags
log_val(mflags[0])
mflags = mflags.split(',')
return render_to_response('editprof.html', {'user':user, 'p':p, 'loggedin':loggedin, 'citylist':citylist, 'pflags':pflags, 'mflags':mflags})
except KeyError:
return HttpResponse('You must be logged in to view this page!')
except MemberProfile.DoesNotExist:
return HttpResponse('DatabaseError')
Template clip:
{% for city in citylist %}
<tr>
<td><input type='checkbox' name='public' value='{{ city.id }}' {% for id in pflags %}{% ifequal id city.id %}checked{% endifequal %}{% endfor %} /></td>
<td><input type='checkbox' name='private' value='{{ city.id }}' {% for id in mflags %}{% ifequal id city.id %}checked{% endifequal %}{% endfor %} /></td>
<td>{{ city.CityName }}</td>
</tr>
{% endfor %}

Console Test:
>>> from screia.core.models import MemberProfile
>>> user = MemberProfile.objects.get(pk=1)
>>> pflags = user.PublicVisibleFlags.split(',')
>>> print pflags
[u'1', u'4', u'7', u'12', u'25']
>>> i = 0
>>> while i < len(pflags):
... pflags[i] = int(pflags[i])
... i+=1
...
>>> print pflags
[1, 4, 7, 12, 25]
