Can I just clarify what you mean by sidebar? I assume you are talking about a html element with some options inside it, to allow you to navigate through the site?
This is (personally) how I'd do it, although others may prefer a different style (you could probably go as far to make this whole thing "classy"). (hand typed code, may need re-writing) --- views.py --- page = "dashboard/help/users" RequestContext(request, { 'section' : page.split("/") } --- layout.html --- {% if section.0 = 'dashboard' %} display stuff relating to dashboard only {% if section.1 = 'help' %} display stuff relating to dashboard/help only {% endif %} {% endif %} On Mon, Jun 27, 2011 at 6:27 AM, Venkatraman S <venka...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I was looking for possible suggestions in implementing sidebars - i have a > truck load of screens and need the sidebar to change dynamically base don > the view.
