django, django-templates

Solution

You can use `forloop.parentloop` to get to the outer `forloop`, so in your case `{{forloop.parentloop.counter}}`.

Problem

Is it possible to access the forloop.counter for the outermost for loop in the following template in Django: ``` {% for outerItem in outerItems %} {% for item in items%} <div>{{ forloop.counter }}.&nbsp;{{ item }}</div> {% endfor %} {% endfor %} ``` forloop.counter returns the innermost for loop's counter in the above example
