request.session.session_key

ASDF {{ request.session.session_key }} <br />

This works.

request.session.items IS DIFFERENT from request.session.session_key.
and the latter is accessible in the TEMPLATE (after session middleware->process_response.

in
C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\django\contrib\sessions\middleware.py

Line 38:

                response.set_cookie(settings.SESSION_COOKIE_NAME,
                        request.session.session_key, max_age=max_age,



OBJECTIVE: You wanted to get the session key in the template, so that you can set it using jQuery plugin,
because IE7 couldn't set it for an iframed page.



#############################
The below snippet doesn't work in the view.py code, as the process_response session middleware has not yet been invoked.


##        session_key = request.COOKIES[p3p.SESSION_COOKIE_NAME]
        print "zzz", request.COOKIES
        for key in request.COOKIES:
            print "aaa", request.COOKIES.get(key)
##        print "session_key", session_key
        print "End"


The result: it prints a lot of Nothing.
