Fields which handle relationships
|

---------------------------------
|

|

For representing relationships between models, two fields are
|
||||
provided which can derive their choices from a ``QuerySet``:
|
||||
Two fields are available for representing relationships between
|
||||
models: :class:`ModelChoiceField` and
|
||||
:class:`ModelMultipleChoiceField`. Both of these fields require a
|
||||
single ``queryset`` parameter that is used to create the choices for
|
||||
the field. Upon form validation, these fields will place either one
|
||||
model object (in the case of ``ModelChoiceField``) or multiple model
|
||||
objects (in the case of ``ModelMultipleChoiceField``) into the
|
||||
``cleaned_data`` dictionary of the form.

|

dictionary of forms in which they're used. Both of these fields have an
