    return redirect('customer_login')

def customer_registration(request):
    print("ASFADFAd")
    if request.method == 'POST':
       return redirect('customer_login')
    return render(request, 'registration/registration.html')

Can you show me output of ```print(request.method) ``` before ```if``` statement? — Saeed, Oct 12 '22 at 02:34
response of `request.method` is `POST` `[11/Oct/2022 17:39:11] "POST /customer/registration HTTP/1.1" 302 0 [11/Oct/2022 17:39:11] "GET /customer/login HTTP/1.1" 200 6226` from browser its' not redirecting — Cadmus, Oct 12 '22 at 03:29

====== views.py ========

def HomeView(request):
    form = ProductForm()
    
    context = {
      'form':form
    }
    return render(request,'index.html',context)


def customer_registration(request):
    print("-------- GET method called ----------")
    if request.method == 'POST':
      print("-------- POST method called ----------")
      return redirect('home')

from django.urls import path
from .views import *
 
urlpatterns = [
 
    path('home/', HomeView,name='home'),
    path('', customer_registration,name='other'),
 
]

{% block body %}
     <form action="{% url 'other' %}" method="post">
          {% csrf_token %}
          
          <p>{{form.name.label}}:{{form.name}}</p>
          <p>{{form.cate.label}}:{{form.cate}}</p>
