I have read the docs on static files but cannot figure out how to
specify an image when using the built-in web server.
If I have my media location:
/myproject/myapp/media/picture1.png
if I have a template file
/myproject/myapp/templates/mypage.html
if I try :

I'm using vers .96
I converted a char field to have choices

I then changed my model:

)

prefix = models.CharField(maxlength=100, choices=SALUTATION, default='Mr.')

will contribute some documentation if I can figure some things out - or
maybe I just say the heck with Django attitudes and go back to Rails.
I'm losing productivity fast here.

I have a class full of algorithms - where is the best place to put this
in Django so that I can then just "import libxxx" in any model class.

You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups
"Django users" group.
I can't figure out where to put my css and js files. I did not want to
hard code the media path in my settings file so it is the default ''.
So if I put a css file in my template - where does Django look for the
relative path ? Any help appreciated.

okay,okay, I'll just write up something and submit it :) I didn't see
any welcome or about page on the main site so I'll work on that and
include this stuff. Now back to coding.

I think it would actually be of more benefit if you could/would
contribute this to the django project and have it on the project site.
That way we can all contribute to it and make it even better.

I just posted a ticket (documentation #5645) for something similar - I
also think the choice is confusing to new users sooo, let's get some
documentation improved on this - feel free to contribute to the ticket -
I'll try to do likewise.

Malcolm,
well said - I just wasted a bunch of time writing a response that was
similar - sooo, do you think it's worthwhile to pull this together on a
about / welcome / introduction page under a heading like "How Django
Works". Then when these comments come, they can be pointed to the
page.
You are right - you don't want to do all that in the view. You should
be able to pass in your railway_list as an object to the template then
in your template show each item as {{railway_list.name}} or something
like that.

As a new user, here are some suggestions & questions:
Startup:
It is important to note in the documentation that with some distros (ie
ubuntu) you need:
$ django-admin.py startproject myproject
then to create an application:
$ cd
Just some perspectives from a new user starting to use Django from Rails
and PHP. I really like the organization of Django (great job guys).
But due to some of the newness, here are some lack of examples that
still make Django kind of hard to use or figure out. So while my
