Hi, even after Googling and reading all relevant posts at StackOverflow, I still can't get static files working in my Django application.

Here is how my files look:

settings.py

MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(SITE_ROOT, 'static')
MEDIA_URL = '/static/'

urs.py

from DjangoBandCreatorSite.settings import DEBUG
if DEBUG:
    urlpatterns += patterns('', (
        r'^static/(?P<path>.*)$',
        'django.views.static.serve',
        {'document_root': 'static'}
    ))

template:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/static/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

I am trying to use jquery.js stored in directory "static".

I am using: Windows XP Python 2.6.4 Django 1.2.3

Thank you very much for any help
