This should answer your question: http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/RemovingTheMagic
In short, a while back the Django developers made some big changes to remove "magic" behavior, where stuff got done behind the scenes. And to clean things up and make it more understandable. For a while there were two branches of Django, a "magic removal" branch and the regular old one. Nowadays magic removal branch is the standard, but you'll still see lots of references to magic removal in old comments and docs. Hope that helps. -Justin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
