You seem to have tried a random selection of things from different blog posts, many of which reference old versions of Django. So for example the 'class Admin' lines in your models is for a pre-1.0 version and no longer does anything. Similarly, if you're using the HTMLField code from django-tinymce, you shouldn't need to reference the javascript files directly in your admin classes - this is only relevant if you're manually applying tinyMCE to your fields. I suspect there are two problems: firstly, the value of TINYMCE_JS_URL doesn't look much like a URL, it looks like a filesystem path. This needs to be an actual URL which serves the Javascript. Which brings me to the second problem: do you actually have anything that serves static files such as Javascript? Remember, Django won't do this for you, unless you ask it to and you're running on the development server. Is something actually serving files from /media/? -- DR. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
