Hi everyone, 

I'm using Django 1.5, Python 2.7 on windows 7.
I have the following view that extracts and display links from various 
sources. It works ok. But I don't know how to: 
1. save the data to the database and 
2. sort it by date extracted.

I hope someone could help me here.

views.py:

def foo():
    site = "http://www.foo.com/portal/jobs";
    hdr = {'User-Agent' : 'Mozilla/5.0'}
    req = urllib2.Request(site, headers=hdr)
    jobpass = urllib2.urlopen(req)
    soup = BeautifulSoup(jobpass)
    for tag in soup.find_all('a', href = True):
        tag['href'] = 
urlparse.urljoin('http://www.businessghana.com/portal/',  tag['href'])
    return map(str, soup.find_all('a', href = re.compile('.getJobInfo')))

def example():
    site = "http://example.com";
    hdr = {'User-Agent' : 'Mozilla/5.0'}
    req = urllib2.Request(site, headers=hdr)
    jobpass = urllib2.urlopen(req)
    soup = BeautifulSoup(jobpass)
    return map(str, soup.find_all('a', href = re.compile('.display-job')))

 foo_links = foo()
 example_links = example()

def all_links():
    return (foo_links + example_links)

def display_links(request):
    name = all_links()
    paginator = Paginator(name, 25)
    page = request.GET.get('page')
    try:
        name = paginator.page(page)
    except PageNotAnInteger:
        name = paginator.page(1)
    except EmptyPage:
        name = paginator.page(paginator.num_pages)

    return render_to_response('jobs.html', {'name' : name}) 




my template looks like this:

<ol>
{% for link in name %}
  <li> {{ link|safe }}</li>
{% endfor %}
 </ol>
 <div class="pagination">
<span class= "step-links">
    {% if name.has_previous %}
        <a href="?page={{ names.previous_page_number }}">Previous</a>
    {% endif %}

    <span class = "current">
        Page {{ name.number }} of {{ name.paginator.num_pages}}.
    </span>

    {% if name.has_next %}
        <a href="?page={{ name.next_page_number}}">next</a>
    {% endif %}
</span>
 </div>


My model looks like this:

from django.db import models

class jobLinks(models.Model):
    links = models.URLField()
    pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date retrieved')

    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.links

It is my first programming project and I can't get this part to work no 
matter what I tried/searched
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
