Hi,
On the homepage of my website i list 1 random ad in the right column.
In my view i retrieve it like so:
side_ad = SideAd.objects.filter(active=1).order_by("?")[0]
If all ad's are inactive no object's will be returned thus creating an
IndexError : list out of range
I tried to wrap the above in a try/except block but it's still the
same error:
try:
side_ad = SideAd.objects.filter(active=1).order_by("?")[0]
except (KeyError,SideAd.DoesNotExist):
side_ad = None
I still pass side_ad back in the context.
Could someone tell me what I'm doing wrong ?
Thanks.
