I agree with Marty: your static URL pattern is never being used. And the log file snippet you gave had the big clue in it:
[09/Feb/2008 11:58:42] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 39 [09/Feb/2008 11:58:42] "GET /site_media/my_image.jpg HTTP/1.1" 200 39 The key thing here is the "39". That's the number of bytes served, and you can see that both URLs returned the same number of bytes, a strong clue that both URLs were handled by the same view. Another diagnostic technique is to put the URL directly into your browser rather than relying on the <img> tag to retrieve it. That would have shown that the image URL was in fact returning HTML. One more thing: Use firebug if you can. It's a great developer tool, and could show you the result of the img retrieval. --Ned. http://nedbatchelder.com/blog Marty Alchin wrote: > On 2/9/08, Brandon Taylor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> Any way, here is my current urls.py document: >> >> from django.conf.urls.defaults import * >> from django.conf import settings >> from btaylor_design.views import home >> >> urlpatterns = patterns('', >> (r'', home), >> ) >> > > Don't bother reading any further than this.
