[Answer]-Django form submission error (passing parameter from view.py to form)

✅

You correctly instantiate the form twice, once in the GET block and once in the POST. However, you only pass the my_arg argument in the GET block. Since your __init__ method requires that argument, you get an error. You should make sure to pass the argument both times.

The error means that there is no key word argument called my_arg in kwargs.

You might want to check if my_arg is present or not using if 'my_arg' in kwargs:

Finally the u means your data is in unicode. Wont cause any problem i guess.
