hmmm.. why don't consider ajax the same way as let's say the templating system? django does not force you to use the django-templating-system (you can use myghty/zope-tal/whatever instead), but it clearly recommends the django-templating-system, and that's the system which is the most tested/streamlined/documented/developed. and i think this is very important. as David H. Hanssen wrote : "Flexibility is overrated. Constraints are liberating" (yes, yes, not the brightest idea to quote a RoR developer here :-)) basically it's a good thing, that if i want to create a webapp with django, there is a RECOMMENDED configuration with a RECOMMENDED urlconf, a RECOMMENDED templating system and a RECOMMENDED orm. which i will surely use, and only plug in something else if the default/recommended components are not enough. the same way i would like to see a "recommended" javascript library. gabor --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
