Body
<p>I am trying to find the most efficient way of displaying an image using django's template context loader. I have a static dir within my app which contains the image 'victoryDance.gif' and an empty static root dir at the project level (with <code>settings.py</code>). assuming the paths within my <code>urls.py</code> and <code>settings.py</code> files are correct. what is the best view?</p> <pre><code>from django.shortcuts import HttpResponse from django.conf import settings from django.template import RequestContext, Template, Context def image1(request): # good because only the required context is rendered html = Template('<img src="{{ STATIC_URL }}victoryDance.gif" alt="Hi!" />') ctx = { 'STATIC_URL':settings.STATIC_URL} return HttpResponse(html.render(Context(ctx))) def image2(request): # good because you don't have to explicitly define STATIC_URL html = Template('<img src="{{ STATIC_URL }}victoryDance.gif" alt="Hi!" />') return HttpResponse(html.render(RequestContext(request))) def image3(request): # This allows you to load STATIC_URL selectively from the template end html = Template('{% load static %}<img src="{% static "victoryDance.gif" %}" />') return HttpResponse(html.render(Context(request))) def image4(request): # same pros as image3 html = Template('{% load static %} <img src="{% get_static_prefix %}victoryDance.gif" %}" />') return HttpResponse(html.render(Context(request))) def image5(request): html = Template('{% load static %} {% get_static_prefix as STATIC_PREFIX %} <img src="{{ STATIC_PREFIX }}victoryDance.gif" alt="Hi!" />') return HttpResponse(html.render(Context(request))) </code></pre> <p>thanks for answers These views all work!</p>

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
