That's annoying: now *I* have a (named) pattern that won't reverse with
the URL tag: specifically, the edit profile URL from the Google code
profiles app:
url(r'^edit/$',
views.edit_profile,
name='profiles_edit_profile'),
When I use
<a href="http://{{ host }}{% url profiles_edit_profile %}">
in my template Django tells me
File "/home/sholden/Django-1.0/django/core/urlresolvers.py", line 252,
in reverse
*args, **kwargs)))
File "/home/sholden/Django-1.0/django/core/urlresolvers.py", line 241,
in reverse
"arguments '%s' not found." % (lookup_view, args, kwargs))
NoReverseMatch: Reverse for 'PyTeach.'profiles_edit_profile'' with
arguments '()' and keyword arguments '{}' not found.
Aarrgghh!

Steve
