Question

I am using a button on my Django template, After click on the button it should open a link offering by reverse url( template tags ). I tried with the following code but it didn’t work

<input type= "button" style="float: right;" value="Next Graph" onClick="javascript:location.href = 'reverse(graph_view)';"></input>

I know that some thing is wrong with the above syntax. What will be the right one?

PS: I don’t want to use any external library

Answer 1

Just use the actual template tag for this {% url %}. See: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/templates/builtins/#url

UPDATE

It should look like this:

<input type= "button" style="float: right;" value="Next Graph" onClick="javascript:location.href = '{% url graph_view %}';"></input>

If it still doesn’t work, you have some other problem. Create a new question and make sure post any errors and stacktraces you get.
