Django Fans, I started out planning to convert one or two dynamic pages of a local canine agility club's web site which I act as webmaster for to Django to see if I really liked Django and to get an idea of how long it would take to convert the whole site. Well, in just under a week I ended up converting the whole site. Not bad considering I was learning as I went and spent a good bit of that time trying to locate silly mistakes that were staring me in the face the whole time. Admittedly the site in it's present state is fairly simple. The photo gallery, upcoming events, and brags sections of the site are the only areas that are currently database driven. Everything else is static pages. And, there's almost no web based admin interface. I use some shell scripts to handle adding photos to the photo gallery section and a clipper(xBase) program to enter upcoming event and brag entries. The program then generates the necessary sql to insert/update the changes to the sql database. My goal at this point was to just duplicate the existing functionality. I've hardly done any customization to the Django admin interface but have already used it to correct a couple of items. Our existing site, currently PHP based, and poorly written PHP at that, is at:
