I apologize for not being clear first time. Its so idiot of me.
Here m trying to provide a search page having a text box input and a
radio button. User types one or more tags to search and a radio input
button decides to either search local user account data or all
database for links.
Also there is a view (get_links) which takes one tag as argument and
returns the result links from database and corresponding line in
urls.py is
(r'^links/(?P<tname>.*)/',get_links)
And the idiot side of me tried to pass two arguments the tag string
from search form and radio button input to this one get_links view
using HttpResponseRedirect(reverse....).
Now I had realized that a new view is required to handle inputs from
search form.
I apologize all and especially Malcolm for wasting their time. I'll
not repeat such things in future.
And thanks to Malcolm for second point that is exactly I m trying to
achieve in results.
Looping through the space separated tag string and querying database
for links common to all of them.
***********************************
1. The code fragment in views.py :
def
if request.method == 'POST':
form = searchForm(request.user,request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse
('zen.views.get_links',args=(request.POST['search_data'])))
else:
form = searchForm(request.user)
2.
def get_links(request,tname = None,template_name =
"showlinks.html",searchit=None):
qs= UserTagLink.objects.filter
(tag_id__tag_name__exact=tname)
extra = { 'user' : request.user }
return list_detail.object_list(request,extra_context =
extra,queryset=qs,template_name = 'showlinks.html')
3. In urls.py
(r'^links/(?P<tname>.*)/',get_links)
