Template "taglib" library?

2007-06-26 Thread Rob Hudson
Hello, While looking at the Lost Theories source code (thanks Jeff Croft!) I saw he's using what looks like a real handy library called "taglib". I can't find taglib and it may well be a personal library. But one use case caught my eye: In theories/theory_list.html he's defining a "paginator"

I've set up a list view that I want paginated and I'm using the list_detail generic view. I was thinking that I would prefer the /url/ page2/ URL over /url?page=2 so I set that up. The problem is, in my template where I want to display the prev/next links there's no way that I see to avoid hard

Cool. What's the best way to coordinate the effort? A wiki page to start with? Coming up in the next month or so I'm going to have to dedicate work time to this but for now I'd like to just lay out the groundwork and do it in such a way that it benefits the Django community. 1) Cross Platform
