I have read several answeres to similar questions but didn't understand enough. Like others I need to use CSS external file, images and background images. At the beginning I try to use images. 0) I use Django 1.2.5 and development web server. 1) I inserted to setting.py (there was not this parameter): TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = ( 'django.core.context_processors.auth', 'django.core.context_processors.debug', 'django.core.context_processors.i18n', 'django.core.context_processors.media', ) 2) I created subdirectories template (for templates) and media (for images and CSS external files) in the project directory< 3) I changed in settings.py: MEDIA_URL = '/media/' MEDIA_ROOT = (os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__),'/ media/').replace('\\','/'),) 4) my index.html includes: # #title h1 { background:{{ MEDIA_URL }}/galion.gif left top no- repeat; padding-left:80%; } # <p><img src="{{ MEDIA_URL }}jungle_hotel_dubai.gif" class="image- pointer" alt=""></p> 5) 4) views.py: from django.template import loader, Context from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
def index(request): return render_to_response('index.html',,context_instance=RequestContext(request)) Such version lead to an error message: SyntaxError at/index/ , invalid syntax (views.py, line 5) What are my mistakes please? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
