as you can see, case 1 and case 2 are a trouble: country and city are
both strings, how's the url supposed to know if a link pointed to one
url or another? Should i use named views in templating? What's the
best way i can use them in my case?
You could make it more explicit:
url(/country/<country>/, search_view),
url(/city/<city>/, search_view),
url(/country/<country>/<city>/, search_view)
So prefix all country urls with 'country/' and cities likewise.
You could, if you like the "/italy/rome" style of urls more, also make
an exception just for cities (but *do* place that exception at the top):
url(/city/<city>/, search_view),
url(/<country>/, search_view),
url(/<country>/<city>/, search_view)
So only cities are prefixed with "city/" to distinguish them.
And you'd better use named variables, so
/(?P<country>.*)/
instead of
/<country>/
(unless you meant that already in your shorthand form, of course).
The view function then can have keyword arguments:
def search_view(request, country=None, city=None)
