17846	Documentation inconsistency for URLField verify_exists param for v1.2	anonymous	nobody	"""class URLField([verify_exists=False, max_length=200, **options])

A CharField for a URL. Has one extra optional argument:

URLField.verify_exists

    If True (the default), the URL given will be checked for existence (i.e., the URL actually loads and doesn't give a 404 response).    

Note that when you're using the single-threaded development server, validating a URL being served by the same server will hang. This should not be a problem for multithreaded servers.

Changed in Django 1.2: Please, see the release notes""


The description suggests that the default value for this parameter is True, but the declaration suggests that it's False.  Additionally, there is no mention of verify_exists in the Django 1.2 release notes."	Bug	closed	Documentation	1.2	Normal	fixed			Ready for checkin	0	0	0	0	1	0
