Django handles urls routing, forms validation etc., but I'm using pure appengine models. In one of my django's forms there is a FileField, which from time to time seems to call django.core.files.uploadedfile...

Using Django blogging, I have a template that looks like: <a href="{{ post.get_absolute_url }}">{{ post.title }}</a> This looks innocuous enough, but it ends up generating yet another lookup of the user of the blog post, something that I (in most cases) already know. However that isn't my point. The URL looks like: http://localhost...
What is the best way to handle style that that is user-customized? Just as an example of the result I'm looking for, this would suffice: body { color: {{ user.profile.text_color }}; } However, serving CSS as a view seems like it would cause a significant amount of overhead in a file that is constantly requested, so this is probably...

Hi I'm trying to make mathjax work in askbot Q&A forum. Got some decent results, but here is a strange issue: once I add some setting (a feature in mathjax that uses cookies) via right-clicking - django automatically logs me out.

Hello, I've been learning django off and on for a few years now and consider myself an advanced beginner, ha. I'm working on a "weighted questionnaire" (that's the best name I can give it anyway) for a client and have gone in circles about where to go with it. The client has come up with a series of yes or no questions and depending o...
