My views.py hands over a variable called "preSelect" that contains a Integer value.
Inside the template I want to use that Integer in an If statement to check if the current for loop counter is less equal or greater than than my value.
{% if forloop.counter <= {{ preSelect }} %}
<td><input type="checkbox" name="checks" id="1" value={{ row.0 }} checked/></td>
{% else %}
<td><input type="checkbox" name="checks" id="1" value={{ row.0 }} /></td>
{% endif %}
This however returns me the following error:

Best Answer
in Jinja, when you use the {%%} marks, don't put the variables inside {{}}
Example Code
So the code in your case would be
