Indeed. This is an Admin feature - as you may have noticed, it's defined in the ModelAdmin class, not in the Model or ModelForm. > Similarly I tried an add category page.Here also the slug is not auto > generated,even though the helptext says that it will be. Yes, would be cool if we only had to document a feature in the helptext to have it automagically working. But I'm afraid this will require a bit more work. > I have enabled > javascript for my browser.Do I have to write a javascript for each of > these pages or can I use some script the admin uses? There are ways to reuse the Admin's js scripts, indeed - sorry, I don't have a link at hand but google is your friend (here at least). But bear in mind that relying on javascript for anything else than cosmetic is a sure road to failure, specially when it comes to forms. IOW, first make sure you'll have a correct slug _without_ javascript. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
