The initial GET request is processed with this block of code: else: c = {} c.update(csrf(request)) return render_to_response('empty.html', c)
empty.html is an empty text file. Also, the view function is decorated with @ensure_csrf_cookie to make sure that the response contains the csrf cookie even though I'm not using {% csrf_token %} In writing all this I just noticed that I have two lines of code aimed at making sure the response contains the csrf token: @ensure_csrf_cookie and c.update(csrf(request)) It seems like I shouldn't need both, so maybe having both is breaking something. I'll check on that.
