Comment (by Robert Reeves <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>):
Yes, you are correct. I more careful reading of the text would have
cleared up the matter. However, I believe people are more likely to simply
copy and past sample code and then tweak it to learn. As such, the
"redirect_to" value in the example is meant to represent a value that the
use can update to reflect a specific view. Thus, it should be shown as
such: redirect_field_name='<redirect_to>' (with redirct_to in italics.) If
that was the case, the angle brackets and italics say "Hey, put in your
own value here!"
As a newbie with both Python and Django, I was confused and a bit
frustrated. I feel that by making this small change, it would help other
people like myself: Java dev's that want a web framework without the
hassles of Spring or the religious fervor of Ruby on Rails.
Thank you for looking into the matter,
Robert
