All those helpful exceptions that Python gives you to let you know if something is wrong: you're catching them and swallowing them. Anything could be wrong, from a simple typo to a serious logic error, and you just wouldn't know.
Really, don't do that. They're there for a reason. If you think a specific exception might happen, catch that and deal with it appropriately; but whatever you do, don't catch Exception, and *especially* don't catch Exception and then just pass. -- DR. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
