It's different because the Media class is a class itself, even though its definition is nested within the model/form class. It only has access to the methods/properties/variables it contains (unless it is given something else when constructed). The solution to your problem is here - http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/forms/media/#media-as-a-dynamic-property Admin media is based on Forms media, so the same principles apply. Sidenote - what's you've implemented is documented at the top of that link, and as stated, it is designed for static media. follow the 'media as a dynamic property' section and you should be able to achieve what you want. Here's an example from my CkWidget class (no if blocks at the moment, but you can easily add them there as it is just a normal instance method inside your class): def _media(self): # add CKEditor JS to page. It is assumed that it is located at # MEDIA_URL + 'js/ckeditor/ckeditor.js' unless base path is overridden # in settings js = [settings.CKEDITOR_BASEPATH + 'ckeditor.js'] return widgets.Media(js=js) media = property(_media) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
