If you're on Django prior to 1.3, you probably want the simple direct_to_template generic view (which does still work in 1.3): https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/generic-views/?from=olddocs#django-views-generic-simple-direct-to-template If you ARE on 1.3, make sure you're importing TemplateView before you try to use it. from django.views.generic import TemplateView Also, if you are going to do it all with template tags, watch your queries. I think it's easier for them to spiral out of control with template tags. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
