Re: Can a template extend a template?

Brilliant! I wasn't looking an answer to this question, and wasn't all that aware of how these interacted, but it will sure come in handy. Thanks for the extremely clear, concise explanation. I don't think the Django docs make it quite that clear. Furbee On Tue, Dec 13, 2011 at 3:49 PM, Russell

Can a template extend a template?

Hi there, I love the concept of DRY, and django's enthusiasm for this concept. In light of this I have tried to have a template extend a template, but it doesn't seem to work. Is there a better way than what I'm currently doing? The current way index.html {% if current_user %} {%

foreign key select widget with "add" link

I have a Model with a ForeignKey and I'm using a vanilla ModelForm, so it's using the standard ModelChoiceField widget. I'm looking to add a '+' icon with a link to popup and new window to add a new foreign key that is not already in the dropdown list. Yes, exactly like the admin forms. I've done

Re: How to change the representation of newline?

Re: Is DJango bad for conveying business-logic?

In my experience the only thing that locks you in Django is not realizing it's just Python and it's just programming. Use patterns and best practices. Don't think of models as be-all and end-all business logic. Plan wisely and you'll be good. -- You received this message because you are

Is DJango bad for conveying business-logic?

Good morning, I am almost 100% locked in to DJango for the projects I have been planning. The final "myth" I'd like to "dispel" is that DJango is "mediocre" at conveying business-logic. Direct quote by Peter Shangov: Whatever your choice of framework your real-life needs will very quickly

Absolutely. I went back and found where I had made it work previously and that is exactly what I did. I just had a (hopefully) temporary blur. Thanks Mike On 13/12/2011, at 8:47 PM, Ilian Iliev wrote: > Or you can change your field to IntegerField instead of CharField if
