I mis-read this... basically you have one view and in the template you
are rendering you put HTML:
<img src="/some/path/to/a/view" />
<img src="/some/path/to/a/view" />
so that path will call your other views which return content as
content_type='image/png' or whatever specific format you're using.
what i was suggesting is you could have:
<img src="/some/path/to/a/view/?foo=1" />
<img src="/some/path/to/a/view/?foo=2" />
<img src="/some/path/to/a/view/?foo=3" />
So in your urls.py file it would parameratize 'foo' and in your view
method you could produce different responses based on the parameter.
Eg: in an other view i have i can pass lat and long coords as params
and it would put a dot on the map based on where that lat/long points
to.
