def my_root_page(request):
#t = get_template('root.html')
html = '<html><body>Please Work!</body></html>'
#t.render(Context({}))
return HttpResponse(html)
def current_datetime(request):
now = datetime.datetime.now()
return render_to_response('current_datetime.html',
{'current_date': now})
These are the views. my_root_page displays as desired, but
current_datetime prints out:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>The current time</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>My helpful timestamp site</h1>
<p>It is now May 26, 2010, 5:13 p.m..</p>
<hr>
<p>Thanks for visiting my site.</p>
</body>
</html>
If you want to see the template I used, its
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>{% block title %}{% endblock %}</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>My helpful timestamp site</h1>
{% block content %}{% endblock %}
{% block footer %}
<hr>
<p>Thanks for visiting my site.</p>
{% endblock %}
</body>
</html>
and
{% extends "base.html" %}
{% block title %}The current time{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
<p>It is now {{ current_date }}.</p>
{% endblock %}
