[Tutor] Python Django Query

[nitin chandra]

Hi Everyone,

I need some guidance / corrections to my code.

I hosted a demo site on pythonanywhere.com and to test the initial
pages I wrote some test code.

Good news, put in 10 hrs, tried so many suggestion given on the net,
yet non worked. So finally mailing the list.

Objective : display main page with multiple links to other pages. Use
jQuery plugins, click the link on main page and open other pages.

The following path and pages are posted below.

Thanks

Nitin Chandra

ERROR
When I click on 'Table' link on 'home' page, the following error is displayed

http://selftech.pythonanywhere.com/table.html
Page not found (404)

Request Method:GET
Request URL:http://selftech.pythonanywhere.com/table.html

Using the URLconf defined in eduinfra.urls, Django tried these URL
patterns, in this order:

admin/
[name='home.html']

The current path, table.html, didn't match any of these.

You're seeing this error because you have DEBUG = True in your Django
settings file. Change that to False, and Django will display a
standard 404 page.
