1,574 PointsDoes teacher['courses'] have the list of courses? My loop can't seem get the course for my <li>
I have <ul class="teachers"> {% for teacher in teachers %} <li> <h2>{{ teacher['name'] }}</h2> <ul> {% for course in teacher['courses'] %} <li>{{ course }}</li> {% endfor %} </ul> </li> {% endfor %} </ul>
Result suggests it there are not courses in the list.
from flask import Flask, render_template
from teachers import TEACHERS
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/')
def index():
return render_template("teachers.html", teachers=TEACHERS)
<ul class="teachers">
{% for teacher in teachers %}
<li>
<h2>{{ teacher['name'] }}</h2>
<ul>
{% for course in teacher['courses'] %}
<li>{{ course }}</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>

<ul class="teachers">
{% for teacher in teachers %}
<li>
<h2>{{ teacher.name }}</h2>
<ul class="courses">
{% for course in teacher.courses %}
<li>{{ course }}</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
