Does Django have HTML helpers? -
does django have template tags generate common html markup? example, know can url using
{% url mapper.views.foo %}
but gives me url , not html code create link. django have similar rails' link_to helper? found django-helpers since common thing thought django have built-in.
no doesn't.
james bennett answered similar question while back, regarding rails' built-in javascript helpers.
it's really unlikely django ever have 'helper' functionality built-in. reason, if understand correctly, has django's core philosophy of keeping things loosely coupled. having kind of helper functionality built-in leads coupling django specific javascript library or (in case) html document type.
eg. happens if/when html 5 implemented , django generating html 4 or xhtml markup?
having said that, django's template framework flexible, , wouldn't terribly difficult write own tags/filters did wanted. i'm designer myself, , i've been able put couple custom tags worked charm.
