It is possible to pop up django's traceback as a separate window when making XMLHttpRequests.
I have found an example of placing the error content from the response into a separate window. This is a bit easier to read than scanning through the raw html in firebug. This appears to work for me on IE 6. A slight modification allows it to work in firefox as well. The source url is http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2005/05/19/xmlhttprequest.html To adapt this to MochiKit, you just need to know that the original XMLHttpRequest object is stored in the error object as this.req. I pass this to the handleErrFullPage function as resp.req.responseText. I've pasted in my code below for my error callback function as well as for the handleErrFullPage function. Thanks for everyone's help. ----------------------------------------- function errorcallback(resp) { switch (resp.number) { case 500: handleErrFullPage(resp.req.responseText); } function handleErrFullPage(strIn) { var errorWin; // Create new window and display error try { errorWin = window.open('', 'errorWin'); // errorWin.document.body.innerHTML = strIn; // works in IE 6 errorWin.document.write(strIn); // works in firefox and IE6 } // If pop-up gets blocked, inform user catch(e) { alert('An error occurred, but the error message cannot be' + ' displayed because of your browser\'s pop-up blocker.\n' + 'Please allow pop-ups from this Web site.'); } } --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
