This Snippet allows a view to controle the printed forms on the templates, in a similar way to the fieldsets used by the django admin.

How to Use:

In the view in question, put:

def some_view(request):

    ...

    fieldsets = (

             (u'Title 1',

                  {'hidden' : ('field_1', 'field_2',),

                   'fields' : ('field_3',)}),

              (u'Title 2',

                  {'hidden' : ('field_5', 'field_6',),

                   'fields' : ('field_4',)}),)

             )

    return render_to_response('some.html', {'fieldsets': fieldsets})
fieldsets = (
             (None, 
              {'hidden' : ('evento', 'colaborador',),
               'fields' : ('acompanhantes',)}),
             )

Next, in the html just add:

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" id="edit" method="post" ...>

    ...

    {% include "inc/form_snippet.html" %}

    ...

    <input type="submit" value="Submit">

</form>
