What I would suggest, if you're using IFrames, is that you use
different views for those "pages", and never call them from the site
directly, except as iframes in another template.
For example, you might have the following template files:
DAuthors.html
DDescriptions.html
Display.html
Display.html would have the template code needed for the view to work,
including the iframe tags, which would look something like:
<iframe name="Descriptions" src="ddescriptions/context">
along with any attribute tags. The "context" would be something like
a record ID for the forum or whatever you're using this for.
My only concern is that you seem to be wanting to have it change the
Descriptions when you select an author?
The best way (in my opinion) to do this, is use a little AJAX and use
DIVs instead of IFRAMEs. Something like...
<div id="author-list">
{{ code to loop through authors }}
</div>
<div id="description-list>
{{ code to loop through descriptions }}
</div>
And just have any links in the author list make AJAX calls that return
replacement data for the description list. Again, this can be
accomplished using "hidden" views - and I'm sure there's a way to use
the databrowse feature in some way to make this easier.
Does that make any sense?
Django can do what I think you're looking for, but again, as others
have said, your solution to the display issue is in HTML, not so much
Django. Think of Django as the bricks, and the HTML as the paint job
and some of the mortar work. It doesn't perform feats of HTML
amazement, it performs feats of building and development amazement.
HTH,
Michael
