We're trying to write some re-usable apps, but face some problems when it comes to configuring various bits of the application to run together.
First off it seems reasonable to allow apps to locate their resources using settings.py. However, in one instance we're not able to do this. Specifically when widgets are created the Media subclass doesn't allow for any kind of initialization of the included javascript. So my colleague then has to force the app to load resources from a fixed location say /media/myapp/..... In other places we're able to configure the javascript using a script tag eg <script ...>var myapp_url_prefix='/notmedia/myapp';</script> Would it not be a good idea to allow widgets to enter things other than js and css in the head section. If 'script' were allowed as an attribute then widgets could also be configured relatively simply. There are also other bits of configuration which widgets could request eg onload/onunload etc etc. For most apps there's no real problem in having a fixed resource location, but I can see cases when proper configuration is desirable. -- Robin Becker --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
