    <p>I've made a Django site, but I've drank the Koolaid and I want to make an <em>IPhone</em> version. After putting much thought into I've come up with two options:</p> <ol> <li>Make a whole other site, like i.xxxx.com. Tie it into the same database using Django's sites framework.</li> <li>Find some time of middleware that reads the user-agent, and changes the template directories dynamically.</li> </ol> <p>I'd really prefer option #2, however; I have some reservations, mainly because the Django documentation <a href="http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/settings/" rel="noreferrer">discourages changing settings on the fly</a>. I found a <a href="http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/1098/" rel="noreferrer">snippet</a> that would do the what I'd like. My main issue is having it as seamless as possible, I'd like it to be automagic and transparent to the user.</p> <p>Has anyone else come across the same issue? Would anyone care to share about how they've tackled making IPhone versions of Django sites?</p> <p><strong>Update</strong></p> <p>I went with a combination of middleware and tweaking the template call.</p> <p>For the middleware, I used <a href="http://code.google.com/p/minidetector/" rel="noreferrer">minidetector</a>. I like it because it detects a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6E682C7Jj4" rel="noreferrer">plethora</a> of mobile user-agents. All I have to do is check request.mobile in my views.</p> <p>For the template call tweak:</p> <pre><code> def check_mobile(request, template_name): if request.mobile: return 'mobile-%s'%template_name return template_name </code></pre> <p>I use this for any view that I know I have both versions.</p> <p><strong>TODO:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Figure out how to access <em>request.mobile</em> in an extended version of render_to_response so I don't have to use check_mobile('template_name.html')</li> <li>Using the previous automagically fallback to the regular template if no mobile version exists.</li> </ul>

    1. COYou can also do/need this to have a special IE6 version of the templates. I'm thinking in using 1 template, with some conditionals if the user agent is IE6.

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.
