    <p>i'm using <strong>googlemaps</strong> <a href="http://py-googlemaps.sourceforge.net/" rel="nofollow">http://py-googlemaps.sourceforge.net/</a> to show some travel info. i send <strong>start_address</strong> and <strong>end_address</strong> through a form and calculate route server-side.</p> <p>everything works fine when i use basic ascii charaters in address, but if i use wild croatian characters such as <em>'čćšž'</em> i get <em>"'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u010d' in position...".</em> </p> <p>if i use </p> <pre><code>from googlemaps import GoogleMaps directions = GoogleMaps().directions(smart_str(start_address), smart_str(end_address)) </code></pre> <p>as a command <strong>in shell it runs fine</strong>, but not when i run through test server on the website. start_address and end_address are both type unicode.</p> <p>so how am i suppost to form start_address in order for it to function properly with whole unicode?</p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong></p> <p>after fiddling around some more this is the code that finally works:</p> <pre><code>from django.shortcuts import render_to_response from django.utils.encoding import smart_unicode, smart_str from googlemaps import GoogleMaps def calculations(request): if request.method == 'POST': trip = {} start_address = smart_str(request.POST.get('start_address')) end_address = smart_str(request.POST.get('end_address')) directions = GoogleMaps().directions(start_address, end_address) trip['length'] = directions['Directions']['Distance']['html'] trip['duration'] = directions['Directions']['Duration']['html'] return render_to_response( 'index.html', {'trip':trip, }, context_instance = RequestContext(request) ) </code></pre> <p>you can consider the issue closed :)</p>

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.
