Hi Guys,

I am new to Django and have completed the initial basic tutorials in the django doc. I am presently working on a pre-customized django application. I was wondering how I can use FireBug to locate the code in a specific element (like button). In the sense, in general the web development once we are able to locate the button we are able to then locate the class of the specific element and JS attached to it and CSS. But in Django this cannot be done since everything is located in separate directories.

Since I am entering into the Django code, where should I start looking for the CSS and JS files?


Hi Smaran,

You can install django-debug-toolbar. That will tell you which templates are used to render a given page. You'll also see the whole template inheritance hierarchy. Knowing the URL and those two bits of information, you'll be able to mentally trace a request as it's handled by urls.py, dispatched to a view function, which in turn feeds a template. You can work forward from the URL or backward from the template.
