    copied!<p><strong>Edit</strong>: The problem was solved, now I've another problem. The data variable returns nothing when it should return "OK" or "EXISTS". </p> <p>I have a template with an overlay effect. The income.html template has a form and a button "Add a new category", when you click on it a new window is displayed(overlay effect) with a tiny form. I don't know why, but the category doesn't get created. It seems I've got some errors in the html script but I can't identify them. </p> <p>income.html:</p> <pre><code>(document).ready(function(){ $("#new_cat").live("click", ( function() { var cat_name = $("#nc").val(); if (cat_name) { $.get("/cashflow/new_cat/0/", { name: cat_name, account: {{ account }} }, function(data){ if (data == "OK") { $("#id_category").val(cat_name); } if (data == "EXISTS") { var error = "The category already exists"; alert(error); } }); } else { var error = "Please enter a name"; alert(error); } })) }); &lt;/script&gt; ... &lt;form&gt;{% csrf_token %} &lt;label for="name"&gt;Name:&lt;/label&gt;&lt;input type="text" id="nc" /&gt; &lt;input type="submit" value="Submit" id="new_cat" /&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p>views.py:</p> <pre><code>@login_required def income(request, account_name): account = account_name if request.method == 'POST': form = TransForm(user=request.user, data=request.POST) if form.is_valid(): income = form.save(commit=False) income.type = 0 income.account = Account.objects.get( name = account_name, user = request.user) income.name = form.cleaned_data['name'] income.category = form.cleaned_data['category'] income.save() uri = ("/cashflow/account/%s") % str(account_name) return HttpResponseRedirect(uri) else: form = TransForm(user=request.user) context = { 'TransForm': form, 'type': '0', 'account': account, } return render_to_response( 'cashflow/income.html', context, context_instance = RequestContext(request), ) def new_cat(request, tipo): if request.method == u'GET': GET = request.GET if GET.has_key(u'name'): name = request.GET[u'name'] account = request.GET[u'account'] c = Category.objects.filter(namee=name, account=account) if c: s = "EXISTS" else: c = Category(name = name, user = request.user, type = type, account = account) c.save() s = "OK" return HttpResponse(s) </code></pre>
