You are welcome!
Setting the Content-Type header works a little different in Django.
You can either specify it when you construct a HttpResponse object ourself:
from django.http import HttpResponse
def myview(request):
response = HttpResponse(content_type="text/xml")
return response
When using the render_to_response shortcut, you cannot use the
content_type-keyword, you have to use mimetype instead (don't know why
exactly, the Django docs say that content_type is only an alias for
mimetype).
render_to_response("template.html", {"ip_address": ip_address},
mimetype="text/xml")
You can also set the content_type header later, however, this looks a
bit cryptic:
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
def myview(request):
ip_address = request.META['REMOTE_ADDR']
response = render_to_response("template.html", {"ip_address": ip_address})
response._headers['content-type'] = ('Content-Type', 'text/xml')
return response
As you see, the Django people seem to want you rather using the constructor! ;)
