Why is my django view returning a zero obejct list?

Question

Guys,

I might be lazy or am blind! but the following code is returning ZERO! items, while very well i know there is some items in the list,

View:

def post_answer(request, quest_id=None):
    answer_list = Answer.objects.filter
(questionis__pk=quest_id).select_related()
    ...
# if a put a print stmt here ( answer_list[0].answer ) there is
# data displayed on the console!!

return render_to_response('myapp/post_answer.html',{'answerobj':answer_list }} )

Template post_answer.html:

{% regroup answerobj.object_list by answer as ans_list %}{{ ans_list|length }}
....

the above code prints 0.

I must be goofing somewhere, pls assist

Paul

Answer 1

try : {% regroup answerobj by answer as ans_list %}{{ ans_list|length }} object_list isn't required.

Answer 2

Tries Bharath technique but still nothing!!

Strange thing is i've tried on other Models and worked perfect, its kinda a trick i use to debug my apps, see if the views send any data to the templates ...

Still stuck!!!
