Hey all, I'm fairly new to both django and jquery, but have a couple years of general oo programming experience (mainly flash/flex/cf), and I'm trying to figure out the best way to implement a form for a sports tournament that manages a few model relationships and uses some simple jquery to improve usability. My models look like this: ...
Hi all, I'm on the verge of testing attributes in response.context with django's own test client (in django.test.client). I get back 5 response.context's. As it seems one for each template part, because when I remove a nested template part (e.g: {% include "sometemplate.html" %}) from the base template the amount of returned context's ...
I'm new to Django and Python. When I move my code from my local dev box to my site on Webfaction it seems to break my code. If I then remove (context_instance=RequestContext(request)) from my main application views.py it seems to fix the problem. If later I put the line back in it works fine. return render_to_response('template.html',...
Hi, I'm using a custom MM/YY field and widget based on this example. I want to iterate over the individual month and year options defined in the widget class in order to apply "selected='selected'" to the MM/YY value that corresponds with the MM/YY value stored in the database.

I do html/css by trade, and I have been working on and off django projects as a template designer. I'm currently working on a site that uses Jinja2, which I have been using for about 2 weeks. I just found out through reading the documentation that Jinja2 doesn't support multiple level template inheritance, as in you can't do more than on...

Hello all, I'm pretty handy with django and python but I'm terrible at the "visual" aspect of the web-design. Even after quite a bit of google-ing I haven't been able to find any sort of resource that has download-able templates complete with css, images, etc. that could be used to set up a basic website easily. I'm looking for example...
So as per a previous question of mine I've decided to start a website which allows django designers to upload templates and css files. I'll provide a well defined set of context inputs and objects and then render the templates that the users provided. This will hopefully give newbies a large set of examples to work from and designers a...

Something like a calendar app, and a random picture app, or whatever, each in a neat little box. While it's possible to write a template with a bunch of if tags that include other templates, this is a bit of a hassle. I'd like ...

I use some third-party template tags in my Django Application (maintained elsewhere) that return a username as a string I can access in my templates like this. {% for user in gr.user.foll.list %} {{user}} Trouble is because {{user}} is returned as a string - I need to convert into a Django User Object, if it exists in the Django DB,...
For the documentation, I'm able to display a formset as below <table> {{ formset }} </table> However, what if I want to format the layout manually? Like how it's done for ModelForms? How can I achieve this? ...
Couldn't think of a more appropriate question title, but I'm looking for some advice on how to implement the following requirement: I have a Project class, which may contain Task objects.
