Accessing URL Parameters in Django Templates

[Sameer Maggon]

Hi All,

Is there a standard way to access the URL parameters in the Django
templates? I can write a template tag to do that, but I was hoping I
could avoid it.

Thanks,
Sameer.

Sameer, if you are using the RequestContext object to produce the template context, then you should be able to access the URL parameters in your template as request.GET.parametername.  In this case, request.GET is a QueryDict object (see http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/request_response/#querydict-objects).

That worked!

Thanks,
