Django - Display ImageField

Question

i just start to use django and i haven't found a lot of info on how to display an imageField, so i made this:

models.py

class Car(models.Model):     name = models.CharField(max_length=255)     price = models.DecimalField(max_digits=5, decimal_places=2)     photo = models.ImageField(upload_to='site_media') 

views.py

def image(request):     carx = Car()     variables = RequestContext(request,{         'carx':carx     })     return render_to_response('image.html',variables) 

image.html

{% extends "base.html" %} {% block content %}    <img src=carx /> {% endblock %} 

I already save an image since terminal and i know is there, also if a do this in image.html:

{% block content %}     {{ carx }} {% endblock %} 

The ouput is: Car object

Can anyone tell me where is my error?

Thanks a lot.

An ImageField contains a url attribute, which you can use in your templates to render the proper HTML.

{% block content %}     <img src="{{ carx.photo.url }}"> {% endblock %}
