Answer 1

Here is code that I used to prevent CSRF token problem when sending POST request with ajax

$(document).ready(function(){
    function getCookie(c_name) {
        if(document.cookie.length > 0) {
            c_start = document.cookie.indexOf(c_name + "=");
            if(c_start != -1) {
                c_start = c_start + c_name.length + 1;
                c_end = document.cookie.indexOf(";", c_start);
                if(c_end == -1) c_end = document.cookie.length;
                return unescape(document.cookie.substring(c_start,c_end));
            }
        }
        return "";
    }

    $(function () {
        $.ajaxSetup({
            headers: {
                "X-CSRFToken": getCookie("csrftoken")
            }
        });
    });

});
