django-templates

I want to add a script tag inside a jquery template. So am referring to this link . It tells to close the inner script tag in the following way : <script id="filaVideoTemplate" type="text/x-jQuery-tmpl"> <!-- Some HTML here --> <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- Some javascript here --> {{html "</sc"+"ript>"}} </script> I tried it, but django shows this error: Could not parse the remainder: '" < /sc"+"ript>"' from 'html "< /sc"+"ript>"' .How can I do this django. Is there any specific solution in django for this? { and } are reserved characters in Django templates, so you need to use

I understand that you can use the initiate parameter for a Form class from this question . I am creating an edit form and I'm trying to figure out how to initiate values from a pre-existing object. Do I do it in the template level or in the view level (I don't even know how to do it in the template level)? Or maybe I need to pass the actual object to the form and initiate in the form level? What is the best practice? EDIT: For @Bento: In my original Form , I'm doing something like this class OrderDetailForm(forms.Form): work_type = forms.ChoiceField(choices=Order.WORK_TYPE_CHOICES) note =

I have a list of userprofiles that I want to be able to sort and filter. I have been able to do this manually, by manually typing in the URLs, but I haven't been able to code the template page to allow the persistence of a previously-applied filter or sort. Here is the url and template code that I currently have -- # in urls url(r'^talent/filter\:(?P<position>[A-Za-z]+)/sort\:(?P<sort>[A-Za-z]+)$', 'talent_filter', name='talent_filter_sort'), url(r'^talent/filter\:(?P<position>[A-Za-z]+)/$', 'talent_filter', name='talent_filter'), url(r'^talent/sort\:(?P<sort>[A-Za-z]+)/$', 'talent_sort', name

I have troubles understanding why django doesn't use my SHORT_DATE_FORMAT in templates when I specify it for the date template tag. My settings are: TIME_ZONE = 'Australia/Melbourne' SHORT_DATE_FORMAT = 'd/m/Y' LANGUAGE_CODE = 'en-AU' USE_I18N = True USE_L10N = True USE_TZ = True In my template: {{ asset.upload_date|date:"SHORT_DATE_FORMAT" }} I would expect '21/01/2014' but I get '01/21/2014'. djangonaut It's actually due to USE_L10N=True + Django still not having a locale conf for Australia ( en-au/en_AU ) which specifies d/m/Y . Bit of an surprise. But it will be there with the release of 1

I'm new to django and I was wondering what is the best/recommend approach to include a view (with certain logic, and its resulting HTML) from within a template. My concrete example is as follows: I have a model which is: class City(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=200) class Place(models.Model): city = models.ForeignKey(City) name = models.CharField(max_length=200) state = models.IntegerField() So I need a view to show each city and it's places. Each place should be rendered in a different way depending on its state. Each different way is very different and will probably need

I know this question has been asked before but after looking into it I can't help but feel I missed something. So I previously had a problem getting django-compressor installed but after a bit of struggling i managed to get it installed. When I run my django application though it stops on execute_from_command_line(sys.argv) in my manage.py and throws this error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\PCDOM\Desktop\Power\pm_app\manage.py", line 17, in <module> execute_from_command_line(sys.argv) File "C:\Users\PCDOM\Desktop\Power\pm_app\env\lib\site-pac kages\django\core\management\_
