 As per the code and text in written in tutorial 3, "Raising error 404": it
 is using "DoesNotExist" catch the exception.

 This will not work, because exception which is raised when accessing a
 non-existing template is '''<class
 'django.template.base.TemplateDoesNotExist'>'''

 Instead of DoesNotExist, it should be:

 def detail(request, poll_id):
         try:
                 p = Poll.objects.get(pk=poll_id)
                 return render_to_response('polls/detail.html', {'poll':
 p})
         except TemplateDoesNotExist:
                 raise Http404
