    858858The :func:`django.db.models.permalink` decorator is useful for writing short
    859859methods that return a full URL path. For example, a model's
    860860``get_absolute_url()`` method. See :func:`django.db.models.permalink` for more.

     869Normally, you should always use :func:`~django.core.urlresolvers.reverse` or
     870:func:`~django.db.models.permalink` to define URLs within your application.
     871However, if your application constructs part of the URL hierarchy itself, you
     872may occasionally need to generate URLs. In that case, you need to be able to
     873find the base URL of the Django project within its web server
     874(normally, :func:`~django.core.urlresolvers.reverse` takes care of this for
     875you). In that case, you can call ``get_script_prefix()``, which will return the
     876script prefix portion of the URL for your Django project. If your Django
     877project is at the root of its webserver, this is always ``"/"``, but it can be
     878changed, for instance  by using ``django.root`` (see :ref:`How to use
     879Django with Apache and mod_python <howto-deployment-modpython>`).

     40.. attribute:: HttpRequest.path_info
     41
     42    Under some web server configurations, the portion of the URL after the host
     43    name is split up into a script prefix portion and a path info portion
     44    (this happens, for example, when using the ``django.root`` option
     45    with the :ref:`modpython handler from Apache <howto-deployment-modpython>`).
     46    The ``path_info`` attribute always contains the path info portion of the
     47    path, no matter what web server is being used. Using this instead of
     48    attr:`~HttpRequest.path` can make your code much easier to move between test
     49    and deployment servers.
     50
     51    For example, if the ``django.root`` for your application is set to
     52    ``"/minfo"``, then ``path`` might be ``"/minfo/music/bands/the_beatles/"``
     53    and ``path_info`` would be ``"/music/bands/the_beatles/"``.
