Hello, I'm a long-time python user who is new to django, javascript,
and Mochikit. I'm very pleased with django so far but I'm having a bit
of a quandry as I start to mix in javascript and Mochikit.
One thing I like about django is that if I make an error in my python
code it send me that great debug/traceback page. This works well if I
submit a form as well. However, I've stared to get more adventurous
with Mochikit and am trying to communicate with the server outside of a
form.
Of course, as I experiment, I make mistakes and I get back to my
javascript console (thank you mochikit) a status=500 error and an
xmlHttpRequest failed error.
I know I made a mistake in my python code in views.py, and I know that
django probably caught it and generated a traceback but I dont' know
how to look at it.
This has slowed down my coding cycle a great deal. Do others have
tricks to get at this? Is it stored in the failed response on the
javascript side? It seems if I could get access to it I could pop up a
window and display it or log it somewhere.
Many thanks for any help in advance. I will put a little code below to
give an idea of what I'm doing.

=== example ===
in my template I might have something like this in the <script> section
content = { name : 'value'};
d=doSimpleXMLHttpRequest('myurl', content);
d.addCallbacks(successcallback, errorcallback);
-- in views.py ---
def myurl(request):
if request.POST:
# process the post response etc.
#, maybe make an error somewhere here
return HttpResponse(result, mimetype='application/json')
---------------------
in the web page when the error is it, I log the object that's returned
to "errorcallback"on the console. It looks like:
INFO: error in xml http request:
INFO: MochiKit.Async.XMLHttpRequestError("Request failed")
INFO: status: 500
