You can't redirect and have the browser do a post: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.3.2 " If the 301 status code is received in response to a request other than GET or HEAD, the user agent MUST NOT automatically redirect the request unless it can be confirmed by the user, since this might change the conditions under which the request was issued. Note: When automatically redirecting a POST request after receiving a 301 status code, some existing HTTP/1.0 user agents will erroneously change it into a GET request. " Because of that, you'll probably end up splitting into two requests, avoiding the problem you're having. > Also, is the view the right place for this logic to occur?

But that doesn't give you a solution by itself. :) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
