Get field class?

Question

I've got a field defined like this

country = ChoiceField(initial='CA', choices=COUNTRIES, widget=Select(attrs={'class':'address country'}))

Notice how attrs is set. How can I retrieve this inside the template?

I'm trying things like

{{country.widget.attrs.class}}

But nothing seems to be working.

Answer 1

I'm assuming you're defining a field within a Django form class, so to access the 'class' attribute of the 'country' field in your template you need to a) prefix the form object name to your variable, and b) throw a 'field' into the mix after your field name, like so:

{{ form_obj.country.field.widget.attrs.class }}

Answer 2

over .field you can access the attrs {{ country.field.widget.attrs.class }}
