Django Letter Headings
March 13, 2010
Here's some code, taken from a Django template, that will output a letter header each time the name of the piece changes to start with a different letter. This assumes that the piece names are in alphabetical order.
<ul id="pieces" title="Pieces" selected="true"> {% for piece in Pieces %} {% ifchanged piece.name|slice:":1" %}<li class="group">{{piece.name|slice:":1"}}</li>{%endifchanged%} <li><a href="/pieces/{{piece.slug}}/">{{piece.name}}</a></li> {% endfor %} </ul>
