There's this HTML trick where if you do <a href="sms:14085551212?body=Hello my friend">New SMS Message</a> , clicking New SMS Message opens up the phone's native SMS app and pre-fills the To field with the number provided (1-408-555-1212 in this case), and the body with the message provided ( Hello my friend in this case). Is there any way I can call this same href string from the form_valid method of a Django class-based view? To be exact, in this form_valid method I'm receiving a POST variable that is a uuid . I need to use that uuid in the body section of the href string I've written in the

Exception Value: int() argument must be a string or a number, not 'AnonymousUser' How do I cater for

I just started a new development server for a website I am working on and I can't seem to get the Django development server to serve the static files I have for CSS and other things. The CSS for the admin site loads fine. I am running it in a virtualenv sandbox. In settings.py I've messed around with MEDIA_ROOT and MEDIA_URL. So far for MEDIA_ROOT I've tried. MEDIA_ROOT = '/home/wluw/wluw/wluw/media' and MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'media') I changed my ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX to ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = '/admin_media/' my MEDIA_URL looks like this MEDIA_URL = '/media/' and the

I have a Django form setup using GET method. Each value corresponds to attributes of a Django model. What would be the most elegant way to generate the query? Currently this is what I do in the view: def search_items(request): if 'search_name' in request.GET: query_attributes = {} query_attributes['color'] = request.GET.get('color', '') if not query_attributes['color']: del query_attributes['color'] query_attributes['shape'] = request.GET.get('shape', '') if not query_attributes['shape']: del query_attributes['shape'] items = Items.objects.filter(**query_attributes) But I'm pretty sure there's

So I already have a database setup with a few columns and a few rows already inserted in. I'm trying to create a view that you would just input information into a form and press Submit, then a row would be added to the MySQL database with the information you just typed in. I believe you can do this with admin, but I would like to try without admin and I'm not sure if this is possible? I've been using the MySQL commandline to add rows as of now.. dm03514 Of coures this is possible this is a building block for data driven websites.
