Hi Craig, thanks for the response. I'm using django 1.2 for templating and webapp2 to handle the requests on appengine. I've tried your suggestion of
{% if folder.id in private_folder_details.values() %} as well as {% if folder.id in private_folder_details.values %} But it prevents page loading i.e. breaks the page. According to https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.2/ref/models/querysets/ it should work, as you suggest. Any ideas? J P.s. Tim, my data structure isn't that malleable. It's essentially I query my appengine datastore, and that retrieves a list of the data models, each of which can be treated as a dict. The dicts are used in a few different ways in the view - only this is giving me trouble though.
