But what is 'args'? You're not including it in the urlpattern, so how can it be passed to the view? If you mean as querystring parameters (eg /myview/?x=1&y=2), these aren't passed as arguments to the view at all, but are accessed via request.GET - you do have to add these on to the URL manually, but can easily convert them from a dictionary via django.utils.http,urlencode, (Not related, but note that you should never use a dict or a list as a default argument in a function definition: see http://www.ferg.org/projects/python_gotchas.html#contents_item_6 for why.) -- DR. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
