Sample jQuery javascript to use this view:
$(function(){
$("#id_username, #id_password, #id_password2, #id_email").blur(function(){
var url = "/ajax/validate-registration-form/?field=" + this.name;
var field = this.name;
$.ajax({
url: url, data: $("#registration_form").serialize(),
type: "post", dataType: "json",
success: function (response){
if(response.valid)
{
$("#"+field+"_errors").html("Sounds good");
}
else
{
$("#"+field+"_errors").html(response.errors);
}
}
});
});
});
For each field you will have to put a div/span with id like fieldname_errors where the error message will be shown.

Here's an example of writing generic views in an object-oriented style, which allows for very fine-grained customization via subclassing. The snippet includes generic create and update views which are backwards compatible with Django's versions.
To use one of these generic views, it should be wrapped in a function that creates a new instance of the view object and calls it:
def create_object(request, *args, **kwargs):
return CreateObjectView()(request, *args, **kwargs)
If an instance of one of these views is placed directly in the URLconf without such a wrapper, it will not be thread-safe.

This a small but very handy view that gives you a convenient direct access to your templates.
Now suppose you saved the snippet under `misc.py`, it's critical to add this snippet (or a similar one, once you get the idea) to your `urls.py`:
if settings.DEBUG:
# Direct Templates
urlpatterns += patterns('misc',
(r'^template/(?P<path>.*)$', 'direct_to_template', {'template': '%(path)s'}),
)
Now you are able to access any of your templates, in different directories by specifying their path after `template/`. e.g., http://example.com/template/news/index.html
Of course you can change it as you want, you can also add other values to the dict argument, the only required key is `'template'`. The whole dict is made available in the template as a context.
All GET parameters are made available in the template too. So `http://example.com/template/news/index.html?title=Testing Title` will make the `{{ title }}` var available in your template. So you can substitute basic variables quickly.
