> See the link below and you want your pattern to be like this url(r'^(?P<id>\d+)/$','myapp.views.entry_detail',name='myapp_entry_detail'), Actually read this whole page, but this anchor is the important part, and the reverse() towards the bottom http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/http/urls/#url and for completeness reread through this again: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/instances/#the-permalink- decorator In the end tho, I usually just use the name='' in the url() pattern along with the **kwargs as described before. But make sure you understand those two pages and you should be able to get it working perfect.
