Hello. I am making a restaurant site with some visually candy that
will load all new subpages via AJAX. And also load pages normally
without AJAX if javascript is disabled.
Ideally, I want to do:
{% if not ajax %}
{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% endif %}
{% block content %}Content Here.{% endblock %}
That way I can use the same template for an ajax request as a regular
request. In a regular request where I pass ajax: False to the
template, it will extend base.html and add all the background stuff
such as html header, navigation menu, etc. But if it's ajax, it
doesn't load any of that unnecessary stuff since that will already be
present in the page with the ajax request.
I know I can just return the whole page to an AJAX request and slice
out the unncessary stuff with jQuery. Or I can create a seperate
template for the AJAX version. But that would either be very
inefficient OR violate the DRY principle.
What is the best idiom to handle this situation?
Thank you for your time.
-David
