Thanks Jay but that doesn't appear to make any difference. I wonder is it how i have settings.py set up but nothing jumps out at me when trying to find where I've gone wrong. Don't know if its important but I'm on a mac and I'm trying to accomplish this through the built-in dev server. Not much success with mod_python and fcgi setups either.
just for the sake of it here's the important bit in the settings: MEDIA_ROOT = "/Users/whitebook/django/django_projects/myproject/static/" MEDIA_URL = "http://localhost:8000/static/"; ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = "/media/" and as i say in the top urls.py it reads (r'^static/(?P<path>.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve', {'document_root': '/Users/whitebook/django/django_projects/myproject/static/', 'show_indexes':True}), If changed that from my original post but doesn't make any difference!
