Semantics
You are here: Home Dive Into HTML5 Diving In This chapter will take an HTML page that has absolutely nothing wrong with it, and improve it. Parts of it will become shorter. Parts will become longer. All of it will become more semantic. Here is the page in question. The Doctype From the top: This is called the “doctype.” Microsoft came up with a novel solution. This idea spread like wildfire, and soon all major browsers had two modes: “quirks mode” and “standards mode.” In his seminal work, Activating Browser Modes with Doctype, Henri Sivonen summarizes the different modes: Quirks Mode In the Quirks mode, browsers violate contemporary Web format specifications in order to avoid “breaking” pages authored according to practices that were prevalent in the late 1990s. (You should read the rest of Henri’s article, because I’m simplifying immensely here. Now then. That happens to be one of the 15 doctypes that trigger “standards mode” in all modern browsers. This is the HTML5 doctype: That’s it. <!

Writing your first Django app, part 4 This tutorial begins where Tutorial 3 left off. We’re continuing the Web-poll application and will focus on simple form processing and cutting down our code. Write a simple form Let’s update our poll detail template (“polls/detail.html”) from the last tutorial, so that the template contains an HTML <form> element: polls/templates/polls/detail.html A quick rundown: Now, let’s create a Django view that handles the submitted data and does something with it. polls/urls.py url(r'^(? We also created a dummy implementation of the vote() function. polls/views.py This code includes a few things we haven’t covered yet in this tutorial: request.POST is a dictionary-like object that lets you access submitted data by key name. As mentioned in Tutorial 3, request is a HttpRequest object. After somebody votes in a question, the vote() view redirects to the results page for the question. This is almost exactly the same as the detail() view from Tutorial 3. Now, create a polls/results.html template: Amend views

Serving Static Content With Django A question that is frequently asked by new Django programmers is: "How can I serve static content (css, images, javascript) with the Django development server?". This article is my attempt to answer that question by demonstrating the best practices way to do so. Why Doesn't Django Serve Static Content Automatically? Well, Django (and python in general) is built around the idea that it is better to be explicit than implicit. This means that Django doesn't force us to put all of static content into a single, specific folder or tree, we can set it up however we like. This flexibility is what Django provides for us at the cost of not being able to automatically detect / serve our static content--which is why you are reading this article :) Where Should I Put My Static Content? In general, the convention I like to use is to put all static content in my project directory underneath the 'static' folder. Which allows me to have a good looking URL schema for my projects.
