jquery ajax file upload with Django

Question

I'm using jquery ajaxfileupload plugin http://www.phpletter.com/Our-Projects/AjaxFileUpload/ to upload images with Django in server-side. I've also done the ajax setup which I saw here Django CSRF check failing with an Ajax POST request But still I'm getting 403 Forbidden: csrf verification failed.

Here is the client side script: http://jsfiddle.net/rkumarnirmal/FSDPH/

Here is the Django code:

def backgroundview(request):
    if request.is_ajax():
        b = request.POST.get('fileToUpload')        
        try:
            g = BackgroundModel.objects.get(user=request.user)
        except CoverModel.DoesNotExist:
            bm = BackgroundModel(background=b)
            bm.user = request.user
            bm.save()
        else:
            g.background = b
            g.save()
        return HttpResponse("")

Could anyone help me?

Thanks!

I've tried adding the tag but still getting the same 403 forbidden error — rnk

Can you use alert(getCookie('csrftoken')) to check if you have it set? — cfedermann

Make sure to use RequestContext in your views.

See https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/csrf/#how-to-use-it

Attach the annotation @csrf_protect at the top of the view method!
