What would I do for a POST? I have a button that is tied to a form that is POSTed. In 1.4 the view returned: return direct_to_template(request, template) and that worked fine. In 1.5 I've changed it to: return TemplateView.as_view(template_name=template)(request) and I end up with a blank page on my browser. No error anywhere, just a blank page. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
