Folks, Quick question or two:
Is there a canonical definition or even a reference implementation of a slug = slugify(str) function somewhere? Yeah, I could go grep through the sources and maybe find one? And yes, I see: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/fields/#slugfield But even that is a bit ambiguous as to the treatment of underscores. Naturally, I'm wanting to use a slug to identify some model instances based on some other model field. But it's not being entered via the Admin model, so I can't do the prepopulated_fileds[] trick either. Second question: Is there a standard clean_user_input() that accepts direct user input from a form text field and de-gunks it so that it is later acceptable to be re-emitted as HTML formatted data without worry of hacking issues? I am looking form something more clever than simply validating the user's input to conform to "is a number" or "is a text field" sorts of thing. I'm specifically looking for a function that strips out embedded scripting, SQL, HTML, etc hackery. Sure, I'd then like to use it to verify clean form input of course.
