You haven't said what the problem is. What does not work? You haven't even stated what you want the different behaviour to be. — Daniel Roseman, Nov 20 '14 at 12:54
i want that when i click on the button rechercher i will send a web page contains "recherche" and when i click enregistrer "enregistrer" i edited my problem. beg pardon — , Nov 20 '14 at 13:57
And what *do* you see instead? Are you sure the form is valid? Have you tried outputting `form.errors` in the template? — Daniel Roseman, Nov 20 '14 at 13:58
when i click i receive again the same form whithout data, the form at the begining of test is valid. please how can i use form .errors ? beg pardon — , Nov 20 '14 at 14:13
Obviously you receive the same form without data, because you have hard-coded your inputs in HTML rather than using Django to render them complete with data. And to use form.errors you just put `{{ form.errors }}`. Seriously, this is all really basic stuff that is well covered in the docs: you should at least read through the tutorial and then the guides on how to use forms. — Daniel Roseman, Nov 20 '14 at 14:16
Thanks Daniel for the help, i have question, You said that i have hard-coded mu inputs in HTML, can you please tell me exact what is the good manner to code my template? beg pardon — , Nov 20 '14 at 14:20
Like I just said, you should read the docs. There is a whole section on [Working with form templates](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/topics/forms/#working-with-form-templates). — Daniel Roseman, Nov 20 '14 at 14:24

change your template with this, it will work :

<form action="" method="POST">
        {% csrf_token %}
        {{emp2.as_p}}
        <input type="submit" value="Rechercher" name="recherche" />
        <input type="submit" value="Enregistrer" name="enregistrer"  />

    </form>
