Tutorial 3 is excellent, however I think a very small technicality should be slightly fixed.
At the time of this writing, at line 120 and 121 in /django/trunk/docs/intro/tutorial03.txt say (backing up one line for a complete sentence) :
For example, in a request to
http://www.example.com/myapp/
, the URLconf will look for
/myapp/
. In a request to
http://www.example.com/myapp/?page=3
, the URLconf will look for
/myapp/
.
The issue is that the URLconf will not actually be searching /myapp/, but rather, myapp/ (without the leading slash). This is evidenced by the actual behavior of Django's URL lookup, as well as the URLconf supplied in the tutorial just a few lines above the section which I'm quoting. I'd fix it myself, but I'm not into the development end of things yet so I can't commit any changes, although I hope soon to change that fact :)
(In [10371]) Fixed a whole bunch of small docs typos, errors, and ommissions.
