That's not correct. See below.

I don't think this is the problem you think it is. URL pattern matching
in Django doesn't look at the hostname portion of the URL or the query
string (everything after the "?"). So those two URLs should look exactly
the same to Django. When you have DEBUG=True in your settings file, do
you really get the 404 screen saying it couldn't match any URL patterns?
If so, what pattern does it say it was trying to match?
It looks like something is going wrong in the runserver case, by the
way. Your form is submitted using a GET action, which means the
submitted URL should look like the second case (although the hostname
portion might well be different). It's not clear why you're using GET
and not POST there, by the way -- better to use normal form processing
practice -- which means action="post", not action="get" -- when you're
starting out so that the differences don't make things any harder than
they already are.
