Oh, that's right! Too often I miss the closing );, especially when *reading* code. It's very unfortunate javascript didn't have someone like Guido van Rossum as BDFL. Life for web developers would surely be easier if it too were developed with "be as readable as English" as a goal. Glad to know

Hello, Leonardo First, which django version are you using? I recommend using the contrib staticfiles app to handle your static files [1]. Once you get the hang of it, it will pay off. Second, see that you aren't getting 404 errors in the js URL. Using the dev server, you can easily read through

Hi all, I'm trying to add a bit of jQuery to a page in a Django site. It seems that my jQuery scripts are simply not loaded, while JS scripts work perfectly. Evan Firebug does not see the jQuery file as loaded. This is what I do in base.html                            {% block javascript %}{%
