Re: Admin site and ModelAdmin
Thanks for the response Mike. I generally don't like it when a design has to change to fit a framework, however, in this case I decided to try your solution. I ran into a couple of problems though :-( 1) The fields that I'm looking up were required fields. Validation failed and error messages were displayed until I changed my model to not require those fields (which creates other problems I'd need to fix). Is there a way to hook in before validation? I over-road the model save function. Would the pre-save signal method fix this problem? Or maybe ModelAdmin.save_model? 2) The desired result of the lookup would be to display the change form so that the information could be verified. In other words, if doing the lookup, 'SAVE' (and 'Save and add another') should behave as if 'Save and continue editing' had been selected. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Admin site and ModelAdmin
I'm new to Django and web development in general (C++ background) and I've got amazingly far very quickly, but there's one thing I've been struggling with for a couple days now :-(. Forgive me if I screw up the lingo. I've got a ModelAdmin page for registrants of a conference which has fields for Employee ID, Name, email etc. The registrant does not have to be an employee, but if they are I could lookup their name, email etc. from an external source (already have the Python code for this). I'd like to have a button next to the employee id field which would lookup the employee's details and fill in the appropriate fields. This seems to me that it shouldn't be too hard but I am spinning my wheels here. Do I need to ditch ModelAdmin? Can someone please point me in the right direction.

Re: enable admin gives error
Thank you very much Russ, the missing comma was indeed the problem.

enable admin gives error
Hi,
I'm just starting out. Things ran fine until I uncomment out:
(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls))
in my urls.py file. When I access my local site from the development
server. I get:
* Exception Type: TypeError
* Exception Value: 'tuple' object is not callable.
My urls.py file contains:
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
# Uncomment the next two lines to enable the admin:
from django.contrib import admin
admin.autodiscover()
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^People/$', 'iFriends.People.views.index')
# Example:
# (r'^iFriends/', include('iFriends.foo.urls')),
# Uncomment the admin/doc line below to enable admin
documentation:
# (r'^admin/doc/', include('django.contrib.admindocs.urls')),
# Uncomment the next line to enable the admin:
(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
)
thanks in advance for any help.
jt

admin media configuration
Hello,
I'm using the Admin and want to change some css/img/js from my projects
directory.
I copy the whole media directory to my projects directory but I am not
able to use it from a webapps.
I added this line to my urls.py:
(r'^media/(?P.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve',
{'document_root': 'media', 'show_indexes': True}),
but the web server still serves media from /usr/lib/...
Apparently it is due to the ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = '/media/' in the
settings.py .
How do I have to alter MEDIA_ROOT, ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX and urls.py in
order to have my local admin css/img/js served correctly? (without
hardcoding anything in templates)
my conf:
Django-0.91-py2.4, with builtin http server
pysqlite-2.0.7-py2.4, with sqlite3
