Kinda pointing out the obvious, but the views ARE, after all, just Python functions. USUALLY you want to redirect after processing a form, for example, but maybe in your case you don't? Note that there are some caveats to doing this (like, what happens if a user hits [Reload] on the second page, which will still have the "original" URL), but in your case you might be able to skip all the reverse-lookups and url evaluation, and simply: def my_first_view(request): # Processing here # Don't send a response from here, just pass control to my_second_view's implementation return my_second_view(request, parmsInADict) def my_second_view(request, parmsFromFirstView=None): # also look in the parmsFromFirstView dict, not just request.POST... return render_to_response('results.html', ...) If you MUST redirect in your situation, well nevermind, see the other responses. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
