you can put comments inside {# bla bla #}.  I've never done this, so
why don't you try it and report back how it worked?

Re: extends base.html error

YES!!!

This was it.  I had the TAG further down the page, but it was commented out 
with an HTML comment.  once I removed the tag altogether, the page renders 
fine.  Is there a way to comment out the {% TAG %}s?

Can you post the exact first several lines of your template?  Do you
repeat the {% extends tag somewhere again in your template?

extends base.html error

2012-03-15 Thread dpbklyn
Hello and thank you in advance...

In Django I have a child template that updates a base.html template. I
keep getting an error:

 must be the first tag in the
template.

When the code in the child template looks like this:

{% extends "simple/base.html" %}

 {% block picklist %}



Simple Index #...
I dont get why I am getting this error, when the EXTENDS tag is
clearly the first tag.

Both the base and the child template live in the same directory, in my
template path /simple.

Thank you,

dp
