Most combinations around the following syntax did not seem to have
worked :
[code]
latest_news_nbr = {
"queryset" : News.objects.all().count(),
"template_object_name" : "latest_news_nbr",
"extra_context" : {"latest_news_nbr" : News.objects.all().count()}
}
[/code]
... what I meant with Side bar is that the template I use contains a
side bar showing informations ...
So any view using that template should also populate the side bar ...
but in fact these are not part of my primary constraints for the the
view I want to develop.
If you connect to www.artima.com, there is on the right hand side a
"Hottest Discussions" ...
I could frame my page ... but I don't like that :(
