In urls.py the view is "index"

That's not Thread safe..

If two views are called in the same time.. you'll be exposed to a huge problem :

Having self.request in the first call context matching to the request of the second one.

If you want something great, refer to the new generic class-based views. http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/class-based-views/

from django.views.generic import View

class IndexView(View):

    def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        return self.render_to_response("all ok %s" % request.method)

    def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        return self.render_to_response("all ok %s" % request.method)

index = IndexView.as_view()
