Small addition to newForms documentation regarding required fields in templates

Reported by: stp2007 <stp2007@…> Owned by: nobody

Description

In the documentation:
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/newforms/#highlighting-required-fields-in-templates

It might be useful to give an example of how to check if a field is required when accessing a form field directly. This would be in addition to the existing example which is demonstrating use when iterating over a form.

I'd suggest an example such as {% if form.fieldName.field.required %}*{% endif %}

Thanks

The documentation: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/newforms/#complex-template-output already contains
an example, that you can use {{ form.fieldname }}.

Nevertheless thank you for trying to improve the documentation.
