There is no canonical "absolute URL" for an object. It's one of the things you define (in the get_absolute_url() method of the model). So the absolute URL can be anything you want. It looks, from below, however, as if you're actually wanting a URL for creating a new model type (which is an object that doesn't exist yet). > > opts = model._meta > url = "../../../%s/%s/add/" % (opts.app_label.lower(), > opts.object_name.lower()) You seem to be trying to access the "add" page in the admin interface for a model of that type. Is that correct? In any case, what you've written there is a relative URL, so it isn't useful in all situations (what is it relative to?). Perhaps you should explain what problem you are trying to solve and we might be able to help. What are you wanting to with this particular string you are constructing?
