Jeff is correct in saying that templates are just for handling layout. Django is quite strict about enforcing this separation. Having worked with a slew of other languages myself I can understand that this can be a tad inconvenient at times (even if it is best practice). A possible solution is to throw your more complex display logic into a custom template tag. You can read more about them here...
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/custom-template-tags/ This will allow you to create snippets of code that you can run from your templates to provide custom functionality in the display layer. It may be a bit of overkill for what your trying to accomplish but nevertheless it's useful stuff. -Matt On Dec 29, 12:17 am, Vicky <vicky87....@gmail.com> wrote: > Is there any way to create a variable within the templates...? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
