While testing an application I’ve written in Django, I’ve found that I’m be thrown a HTTP 403 Forbidden error every time I submit a form. I am aware that the CSRF middleware checks for a cookie with the CSRF token – but what should my approach be given a user that has cookies disabled?

Do I need to be checking whether the user has cookies enabled in each of my views or is there a more efficient approach?

Thanks in advance.

This question dealt with Django pre-1.2 — the solution is different if you have an older version.

    Starting in Django 1.2 you can override the 403 response using CSRF_FAILURE_VIEW.
