Comment:
Basically, it is an HTML error.
when you write something like :
{{{
<a href="url/to/django_view/"><button>See</button></a>
}}}
or
{{{
<a href='url/to/django/view' onClick='document.search_form.submit()'>
}}}
you're telling the browser to do 2 things in this order :
* Handle the javascript code (and do POST)
* Navigate to a new url (and do GET)
Use Firebug or look at Django console logs, you'll see the POST then the
GET.
Django will handle the 2 requests without problem but the browser is
waiting for 2 threads.
If browser was serializing threads (which is not what threads are made
for), you wouldn't see any broken pipe.
But sometimes, the "GET thread" answers before the "POST thread", so the
browser considers this is the "thread" to use and "considers" that the
"POST thread" is useless, so it closes the connection, thus making Django
raise "Broken Pipe".
What you're seeing is just a side-effect of browser thread concurrency.
Try to fix your html code like that :
{{{
<a href="javascript:document.search_form.submit();">See</a>
}}}
