Serve different page to IE7/8?

Hi, We're currently development a small Django webapp for use internally. The page renders fine on Firefox and Webkit-based browsers. However, many of our users are still on Internet Explorer 7, and the CSS/HTML we're using seems to bork really badly on that. I'm definitely not a web-designer

django.contrib.sitemaps unit tests dependency on django.contrib.auth

It appears that at some where between development of 1.2.1 and 1.2.3, django.contrib.sitemaps becomes dependent on django.contrib.auth for unit tests. Since not all Django apps will use the auth system, I'm curious if that dependency should exist? I ask because I was going to file a report in

I'm guessing that your original problem was that HTTP headers can only contain ASCII characters. To have a UTF-8 encoded name, you should use percent-encoding. I'm using this code on production site: quoted_name = urllib.quote(file.name.encode('utf-8')) response['Content-Disposition'] =

Thanks for all replies. I've read a bit about template tags. It looks fine for me. Write one tag for each side plugin. Then prepare some sets of these tags and call it whether set I want. I hope my approach is good. On 21 Lis, 19:40, "Joseph (Driftwood Cove Designs)"

How can I set a flatpage to be my homepage?

Hi there, I've created some flatpages and they work great. For example http://127.0.0.1:8000/home/ and http://127.0.0.1:8000/blog/ I'm catching my flatpages with urlpatterns += patterns('', (r'', include('darren_web.flatpages.urls')), ) What I want though is for http://127.0.0.1:8000/home/

Re: How can I set a flatpage to be my homepage?

mongoose - all you need to do is specify the url: / for the flatpage you want to be homepage. a flatpage can only have one URL - if you want it to show up on 2 urls (e.g. / and /home/), you'll need a re-direct, a view, a re-write rule, or some other trick. good luck. On Nov 21, 2:48 am,

robos85 - there are a couple ways to go - - context processor: this can add a set of context variables so they are available in every template - very easy to write - just a function that takes a request object, returns a context dictionary. Add to your CONTEXT_PROCESSORS setting

I need to serve media-files uploaded by users, but only the user who uploaded a file should be able to download that file again. therefore, I need to check whether the currently logged-in user is the creator of that file (ok, that´s easy with using a view). – of course, serving the media-file via

The first error is simple, university models is defined after your department model, thus is not found, you can define the foreign key as a string in the form of "appname.ModelName", so you will define it like this: class departments(models.Model): university =

Re: problems with model inheritance if base class is not abstract

Mmm yes it seems you are right. But I think this is a bit confusing thinking about object oriented programming, it is not? Then the only way to avoid this seems to be use an abstract base class or use some not so clean way to simulate this behavior. On 21 Nov, 01:36, Ramiro Morales
