Hi, I would like to have a part of my webpage reserved for login information (a login form, and if a user has logged in succesfully, some information & options).
Now, the login form is in the base.html template. base.html checks whether user info is known (by looking at session variables), if there is none, an empty loginform is shown. The login form POSTs its data to an url that points to a view. This view (receiving the request) checks with the database whether the login/password combination is a valid one, and sets the session variables if so. It then HttpResponseRedirects back to the referring page (because the login form is available all over the site, The problem is: how can I pass context info through this? Suppose I'd want to maintain the login information the user has entered in the form, and reprint it in the form, together with an error message? Is there a way to HttpResponseRedirect and pass context variables in the mean time? I tried working with custom template tags for this, but then I would have to pass the context variables from the view to the template and then to the template tag. This seems too convoluted to me. Also, it seems difficult to pass the request information to the template tag..
