#16044 closed Bug (fixed)

"Writing views" documentation reference a nonexistent "previous chapter"

Description (last modified by Luke Plant)

Reference: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev//topics/http/views/

The last line of the first paragraph of the "Writin views" section assert:

"""For the sake of putting the code somewhere, let’s create a file called views.py in the mysite directory, which you created in the previous chapter."""

I guest that this 'whick you created in the previous chapter' is a C&P error from the book. Maybe the correct line will be more like:

"""For the sake of putting the code somewhere, the recommendation is to put views in a file called views.py, placed in your project or application directory"""

Agreed. I fixed some typos in your description, and modified the grammar of your suggestion too, to use 'you' instead of 'we', since 'we' at that point is really only suitable in a tutorial context.
