Including a querystring in a django.core.urlresolvers reverse() call

You can’t capture GET parameters in the url confs, so your method is correct.

I generally prefer string formatting but it’s the same thing.
"%s?next=%s" % (reverse(name), reverse(redirect))

The URLconf searches against the
requested URL, as a normal Python
string. This does not include GET or
POST parameters, or the domain name.
