Hi All, I did not find anything about that topic so I am probably missing one big thing here. I would be really glad to have your opinion so first let me start by quoting the Djangobook:
""" A Word About Pretty URLs If you’re experienced in another Web development platform, such as PHP or Java, you may be thinking, “Hey, let’s use a query string parameter!” — something like /time/plus?hours=3, in which the hours would be designated by the hours parameter in the URL’s query string (the part after the ?). You can do that with Django (and we’ll tell you how in Chapter 7), but one of Django’s core philosophies is that URLs should be beautiful. The URL /time/plus/3/ is far cleaner, simpler, more readable, easier to recite to somebody aloud and … just plain prettier than its query string counterpart. Pretty URLs are a characteristic of a quality Web application. """ So my question is: assuming you have a form within the view triggered by the "/time/plus/3/" call, how do you avoid putting an absolute path in the form action field? All that because of slashes in the calling url. That is so, so, so ugly that it deprecates completely the advantage of having nice urls based on slashes. Or am I missing something? Of course having the root url in a global parameter is not an option if we stick to prettiness requirement. Using something else than a slash as a special character may be?
