I am passing a parameter in a url to another view and during the process it 
gets changed.  An original parameter example that produces the error 
is OQYX/173774//ZYO but gets changed to '/viewLit/OQYX/173774/ZYO/' It 
drops the second / between 173774 and ZYO. I assumed this was because it 
was treating it as an escape character? So I tried adding an r in the 
urls.py file but it did not have any effect. Here is my template code for 
the page that generates the hyperlink:

<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">

My project level urls.py file:
"""ciopsdb URL Configuration

The `urlpatterns` list routes URLs to views. For more information please 
see:
    https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/topics/http/urls/
Examples:
Function views
    1. Add an import:  from my_app import views
    2. Add a URL to urlpatterns:  path('', views.home, name='home')
Class-based views
    1. Add an import:  from other_app.views import Home
    2. Add a URL to urlpatterns:  path('', Home.as_view(), name='home')
Including another URLconf
    1. Import the include() function: from django.urls import include, path
    2. Add a URL to urlpatterns:  path('blog/', include('blog.urls'))
"""
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include
from django.conf.urls import url

    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    path('', include('homepage.urls')),
    path('searchlit/', include('searchLit.urls')),

My viewLit app's urls.py

from django.urls import path, include
from django.conf.urls import  url
from . import views

urlpatterns= [
     path(r'<path:circuitid>/', views.viewLit, name='viewLit'),

My viewLit app's views.py

from django.shortcuts import render

from . models import Circuitinfotable, Budgettable, Xcinventorytable

# Create your views here.
def viewLit(request, circuitid):

    template = 'viewLit/viewCircuit.html'
    context = {'record':record}
    return render(request, template, context)
