  * See [http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_thread/thread/42aff5c291a69041/d006eb5292b8aac3 this thread on the django-developers list] for discussion of error suppression in the template engine
 
+== django.template.!__init!__.py ==
+Using an invalid template tag results in the generic 'list index out of range' error which doesn't show any information about the offending file or expression.  E.g., if a template contains:
+{{{
+...
+{% invalid_template_tag %} 
+...
+}}}
+An error occurs at line 279 of django.template.!__init!__.py:
+{{{
+278   try:
+279      compiled_result = compile_func(self, token)
+280   except KeyError:
+281      self.invalid_block_tag(token, command)
+282   except TemplateSyntaxError, e:
+283      if not self.compile_function_error(token,e):
+291          raise
+}}}
+What seems to be happening is that self.invalid_block_tag(...) raises an error which gets caught by TemplateSyntaxError and which eventually leads to the generic 'list index out of range' error being reported in the Django error page.
