Question

I’m using django 1.3

I’m using a base.html template which my pages inherit from. Everything works fine except for one page (which has a form on it).
That page is trying to call the CSS from /links/addlink/css/site.css but this is the wrong location. It is in /static/css/site.css

In my base.html I have <link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ STATIC_URL }}css/site.css" type="text/css" charset="utf-8" />

If I create a completely seperate template and use the full path like <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://127.0.0.1:8000/static/css/site.css" type="text/css" charset="utf-8" /> then my page renders correctly.

What is wrong?

You are not using RequestContextin your view.
