>>> print p['first_name']
<input type="text" name="first_name" />
>>> print p['last_name']
<input type="text" name="last_name" />
>>> print p['birthday']
<input type="text" name="birthday" />

"auto_id" tells the Form to add an "id" attribute to each form element.
If it's a string that contains '%s', Django will use that as a format string
into which the field's name will be inserted.
>>> p = Person(auto_id='id_%s')
>>> print p.as_ul()
<li>First name: <input type="text" name="first_name" id="id_first_name" /></li>
<li>Last name: <input type="text" name="last_name" id="id_last_name" /></li>
<li>Birthday: <input type="text" name="birthday" id="id_birthday" /></li>

If auto_id is any True value whose str() does not contain '%s', the "id"
attribute will be the name of the field.
>>> p = Person(auto_id=True)
>>> print p.as_ul()
<li>First name: <input type="text" name="first_name" id="first_name" /></li>
<li>Last name: <input type="text" name="last_name" id="last_name" /></li>
<li>Birthday: <input type="text" name="birthday" id="birthday" /></li>

If auto_id is any False value, an "id" attribute won't be output unless it
was manually entered.
>>> p = Person(auto_id=False)
>>> print p.as_ul()
<li>First name: <input type="text" name="first_name" /></li>
<li>Last name: <input type="text" name="last_name" /></li>
<li>Birthday: <input type="text" name="birthday" /></li>

In this example, auto_id is False, but the "id" attribute for the "first_name"
field is given.
>>> class PersonNew(Form):
...     first_name = CharField(widget=TextInput(attrs={'id': 'first_name_id'}))
...     last_name = CharField()
...     birthday = DateField()
>>> p = PersonNew(auto_id=False)
>>> print p.as_ul()
<li>First name: <input type="text" id="first_name_id" name="first_name" /></li>
<li>Last name: <input type="text" name="last_name" /></li>
<li>Birthday: <input type="text" name="birthday" /></li>

If the "id" attribute is specified in the Form and auto_id is True, the "id"
attribute in the Form gets precedence.
>>> p = PersonNew(auto_id=True)
>>> print p.as_ul()
<li>First name: <input type="text" id="first_name_id" name="first_name" /></li>
<li>Last name: <input type="text" name="last_name" id="last_name" /></li>
<li>Birthday: <input type="text" name="birthday" id="birthday" /></li>

>>> class SignupForm(Form):
...     email = EmailField()
...     get_spam = BooleanField()
>>> f = SignupForm()
>>> print f['email']
<input type="text" name="email" />
>>> print f['get_spam']
<input type="checkbox" name="get_spam" />

>>> f = SignupForm({'email': 'test@example.com', 'get_spam': True})
>>> print f['email']
<input type="text" name="email" value="test@example.com" />
>>> print f['get_spam']
<input checked="checked" type="checkbox" name="get_spam" />

Any Field can have a Widget class passed to its constructor:
>>> class ContactForm(Form):
...     subject = CharField()
...     message = CharField(widget=Textarea)
>>> f = ContactForm()
>>> print f['subject']
<input type="text" name="subject" />
>>> print f['message']
<textarea name="message"></textarea>

as_textarea() and as_text() are shortcuts for changing the output widget type:
>>> f['subject'].as_textarea()
u'<textarea name="subject"></textarea>'
>>> f['message'].as_text()
u'<input type="text" name="message" />'

The 'widget' parameter to a Field can also be an instance:
>>> class ContactForm(Form):
...     subject = CharField()
...     message = CharField(widget=Textarea(attrs={'rows': 80, 'cols': 20}))
>>> f = ContactForm()
>>> print f['message']
<textarea rows="80" cols="20" name="message"></textarea>

Instance-level attrs are *not* carried over to as_textarea() and as_text():
>>> f['message'].as_text()
u'<input type="text" name="message" />'
>>> f = ContactForm({'subject': 'Hello', 'message': 'I love you.'})
>>> f['subject'].as_textarea()
u'<textarea name="subject">Hello</textarea>'
>>> f['message'].as_text()
u'<input type="text" name="message" value="I love you." />'

For a form with a <select>, use ChoiceField:
>>> class FrameworkForm(Form):
...     name = CharField()
...     language = ChoiceField(choices=[('P', 'Python'), ('J', 'Java')])
>>> f = FrameworkForm()
>>> print f['language']
<select name="language">
<option value="P">Python</option>
<option value="J">Java</option>
</select>
>>> f = FrameworkForm({'name': 'Django', 'language': 'P'})
>>> print f['language']
<select name="language">
<option value="P" selected="selected">Python</option>
<option value="J">Java</option>
</select>

>>> class FrameworkForm(Form):
...     name = CharField()
...     language = ChoiceField(choices=[('P', 'Python'), ('J', 'Java')], widget=RadioSelect)
>>> f = FrameworkForm()
>>> print f['language']
<ul>
<li><label><input type="radio" name="language" value="P" /> Python</label></li>
<li><label><input type="radio" name="language" value="J" /> Java</label></li>
</ul>

MultipleChoiceField is a special case, as its data is required to be a list:
>>> class SongForm(Form):
...     name = CharField()
...     composers = MultipleChoiceField()
>>> f = SongForm()
>>> print f['composers']
<select multiple="multiple" name="composers">
</select>
>>> class SongForm(Form):
...     name = CharField()
...     composers = MultipleChoiceField(choices=[('J', 'John Lennon'), ('P', 'Paul McCartney')])
>>> f = SongForm()
>>> print f['composers']
<select multiple="multiple" name="composers">
<option value="J">John Lennon</option>
<option value="P">Paul McCartney</option>
</select>
>>> f = SongForm({'name': 'Yesterday', 'composers': ['P']})
>>> print f['name']
<input type="text" name="name" value="Yesterday" />
>>> print f['composers']
<select multiple="multiple" name="composers">
<option value="J">John Lennon</option>
<option value="P" selected="selected">Paul McCartney</option>
</select>

There are a couple of ways to do multiple-field validation. If you want the
validation message to be associated with a particular field, implement the
clean_XXX() method on the Form, where XXX is the field name. As in
Field.clean(), the clean_XXX() method should return the cleaned value. In the
clean_XXX() method, you have access to self.clean_data, which is a dictionary
of all the data that has been cleaned *so far*, in order by the fields,
including the current field (e.g., the field XXX if you're in clean_XXX()).
>>> class UserRegistration(Form):
...    username = CharField(max_length=10)
...    password1 = CharField(widget=PasswordInput)
...    password2 = CharField(widget=PasswordInput)
...    def clean_password2(self):
...        if self.clean_data.get('password1') and self.clean_data.get('password2') and self.clean_data['password1'] != self.clean_data['password2']:
...            raise ValidationError(u'Please make sure your passwords match.')
...        return self.clean_data['password2']
>>> f = UserRegistration()
>>> f.errors
{}
>>> f = UserRegistration({})
>>> f.errors
{'username': [u'This field is required.'], 'password1': [u'This field is required.'], 'password2': [u'This field is required.']}
>>> f = UserRegistration({'username': 'adrian', 'password1': 'foo', 'password2': 'bar'})
>>> f.errors
{'password2': [u'Please make sure your passwords match.']}
>>> f = UserRegistration({'username': 'adrian', 'password1': 'foo', 'password2': 'foo'})
>>> f.errors
{}
>>> f.clean()
{'username': u'adrian', 'password1': u'foo', 'password2': u'foo'}

Another way of doing multiple-field validation is by implementing the
Form's clean() method. If you do this, any ValidationError raised by that
method will not be associated with a particular field; it will have a
special-case association with the field named '__all__'.
Note that in Form.clean(), you have access to self.clean_data, a dictionary of
all the fields/values that have *not* raised a ValidationError. Also note
Form.clean() is required to return a dictionary of all clean data.
>>> class UserRegistration(Form):
...    username = CharField(max_length=10)
...    password1 = CharField(widget=PasswordInput)
...    password2 = CharField(widget=PasswordInput)
...    def clean(self):
...        if self.clean_data.get('password1') and self.clean_data.get('password2') and self.clean_data['password1'] != self.clean_data['password2']:
...            raise ValidationError(u'Please make sure your passwords match.')
...        return self.clean_data
>>> f = UserRegistration()
>>> f.errors
{}
>>> f = UserRegistration({})
>>> print f.as_table()
<tr><td colspan="2"><ul><li>This field is required.</li></ul></td></tr>
<tr><td>Username:</td><td><input type="text" name="username" /></td></tr>
<tr><td colspan="2"><ul><li>This field is required.</li></ul></td></tr>
<tr><td>Password1:</td><td><input type="password" name="password1" /></td></tr>
<tr><td colspan="2"><ul><li>This field is required.</li></ul></td></tr>
<tr><td>Password2:</td><td><input type="password" name="password2" /></td></tr>
>>> f.errors
{'username': [u'This field is required.'], 'password1': [u'This field is required.'], 'password2': [u'This field is required.']}
>>> f = UserRegistration({'username': 'adrian', 'password1': 'foo', 'password2': 'bar'})
>>> f.errors
{'__all__': [u'Please make sure your passwords match.']}
>>> print f.as_table()
<tr><td colspan="2"><ul><li>Please make sure your passwords match.</li></ul></td></tr>
<tr><td>Username:</td><td><input type="text" name="username" value="adrian" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Password1:</td><td><input type="password" name="password1" value="foo" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Password2:</td><td><input type="password" name="password2" value="bar" /></td></tr>
>>> print f.as_ul()
<li><ul><li>Please make sure your passwords match.</li></ul></li>
<li>Username: <input type="text" name="username" value="adrian" /></li>
<li>Password1: <input type="password" name="password1" value="foo" /></li>
<li>Password2: <input type="password" name="password2" value="bar" /></li>
>>> f = UserRegistration({'username': 'adrian', 'password1': 'foo', 'password2': 'foo'})
>>> f.errors
{}
>>> f.clean()
{'username': u'adrian', 'password1': u'foo', 'password2': u'foo'}

It's possible to construct a Form dynamically by adding to the self.fields
dictionary in __init__(). Don't forget to call Form.__init__() within the
subclass' __init__().
>>> class Person(Form):
...     first_name = CharField()
...     last_name = CharField()
...     def __init__(self):
...         super(Person, self).__init__()
...         self.fields['birthday'] = DateField()
>>> p = Person()
>>> print p
<tr><td>First name:</td><td><input type="text" name="first_name" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Last name:</td><td><input type="text" name="last_name" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Birthday:</td><td><input type="text" name="birthday" /></td></tr>

A Form's fields are displayed in the same order in which they were defined.
>>> class TestForm(Form):
...     field1 = CharField()
...     field2 = CharField()
...     field3 = CharField()
...     field4 = CharField()
...     field5 = CharField()
...     field6 = CharField()
...     field7 = CharField()
...     field8 = CharField()
...     field9 = CharField()
...     field10 = CharField()
...     field11 = CharField()
...     field12 = CharField()
...     field13 = CharField()
...     field14 = CharField()
>>> p = TestForm()
>>> print p
<tr><td>Field1:</td><td><input type="text" name="field1" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Field2:</td><td><input type="text" name="field2" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Field3:</td><td><input type="text" name="field3" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Field4:</td><td><input type="text" name="field4" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Field5:</td><td><input type="text" name="field5" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Field6:</td><td><input type="text" name="field6" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Field7:</td><td><input type="text" name="field7" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Field8:</td><td><input type="text" name="field8" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Field9:</td><td><input type="text" name="field9" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Field10:</td><td><input type="text" name="field10" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Field11:</td><td><input type="text" name="field11" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Field12:</td><td><input type="text" name="field12" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Field13:</td><td><input type="text" name="field13" /></td></tr>
<tr><td>Field14:</td><td><input type="text" name="field14" /></td></tr>
