As far as i know all templatetag errors fail silently (true?) In any
case im not getting an error, but i dont get this paragraph with The
time is text either.
Just in case you need view code too - ill post it here.
def index(request):
if 'language' not in request.session:
val = lang.objects.get(fdef=True).short
request.session['language'] = val
value = request.session['language']
lpl = lang.objects.get(short = value)
langs = lang.objects.order_by('id')
return render_to_response('front/arts.html', {
'lpl': lpl,'langs':langs
}, context_instance=RequestContext(request))
