ValueError when getting objects by id

Question

I\'m trying to get data by id in my django app. The problem is that I don\'t know the kind of id the user will click on. I input the below codes in views.

Views

The regex in your urlconf needs a little tweak:

url(r'^cribme/(?P\d+)/$', 'meebapp.views.cribdetail', name='cribdetail'),

The value of the meekme_id parameter wasn't being captured, since the \d+ was outside the parentheses.
