* stage: Unreviewed => Accepted Comment: zigzag, your report doesn't mention Django at all — I nearly closed the ticket as unrelated to Django! :) Given the patch, if I understand correctly, the bug is that, since python 2.7, `django.forms.fields.URLField.to_python` can raise `ValueError`. But a form field's `to_python` method shouldn't raise any exception other than `ValidationError`. This rule isn't written explicitly in https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/ref/forms/validation/ but it's true for Django's built-in form fields. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/16664#comment:3> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
