missing ampersands in pdfs

I am using django with the geraldo reports engine and have recently encountered problems. Of course this may be a geraldo problem and I have made a similar post on that group. I am hoping, however, that this might just ring a bell with someone. Many text fields in the database contain ampersands

I am interested in applying patch 7028, but I don't know what to apply it to. Any help would be appreciated. Paul Hide -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group. To post to this group, send email to django-us...@googlegroups.com. To

admin get_urls method

admin list_display

Using the admin list_display and a callable with its allow_tags property set to True you can plant a link for each object on the changle_list display page of the admin. Is there some way of making this link dynamic without having to extend the ModelAdmin.changelist_view and its associated

raw_id_fields in admin

When using one of these fields in Add mode you make a choice of the object from a popup window and the js returns the id into the field. It would be very useful if it also tacked the unicode (that you see whilst making the choice) corresponding to that id onto the end of the field as it does when

foreign key drop downs - again

Use of the django default forms routines form_for_model, form_for_instance on a model that has a foreign key that references a table with a large number (thousands) of rows results in two problems. One, you get an appreciable (5 seconds on a local network using postgres and apache) delay while

generic view object_list

The code of views.generic.list_detail. object_list has the following line: queryset = queryset._clone(), Looking at the rest of the code I can't quite see why this 'cloning' operation takes place, but I have probably missed something. If the code were to read: try: queryset = queryset._clone()

generic views

The object_list generic view would be much more useful if it would accept lists as well as querysets. The only thing that prevents this is the line: queryset = queryset._clone() since lists don't have the _clone method. The reason I want to do this is that I accumulate a list of things from a

at the django code there doesn't seem to be any real difference between a base_field and a field that is created in the __init__ method; or maybe I've missed something. Paul Hide On Feb 18, 6:21 am, "Honza Král" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 2/18/07, paulh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

I feel the following should work: class Myform(forms.Form): ...publ = forms.ChoiceField(label='Publisher', required=False) and then in handler I should be able to set the choices dynamically by: def meth(request): ...frm=Myform(initial={'publ':((1,2),(2,3),(3,4)))}) #even if the brackets are

Re: Good Web development practice

Many thanks to both Russ Magee and Andrew Durdin - all is now clear. I will, as you suggest, try to come up with a passage that could be added to the tutorial to clarify the ideas. Seeing as it was I that had the problem I might be best suited to write such a passage drawing on the contents of

Re: Good Web development practice

This thread seems to have drifted away from its original purpose. The tutorial authors seemed to have an idea about preventing the reposting of data by use of a suitable redirect. I stated that I had been unable to achieve this effect and asked whether anyone else had been able to achieve it.

Good Web development practice

The subject is a phrase cut from one of the Django tutorials. In this tutorial the authors say that after successfully processing POST data you should return an HttpResponseRedirect and that this will prevent the user using the back button and taking the action again. I have messed around with

Admin class cannot extend object

Running through the django tutorials I noticed that you cannot create the inner Admin class as a subclass of object. i.e. class Admin(object): -->pass does not work. Is this deliberate or an historical quirk? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message
