I'm sorry none of us replied sooner; I for one completely missed the
original message.
For the record, you can use request.is_ajax to figure out whether a

It's mighty useful in some cases.
Also, have you gone trough the official tutorial? It seems to me there
are a few concepts you should be aware of.
Cheers,
Andre Terra
