No. with the line below items will be empty ant not 404.

items= get_object_or_404(Category,name=category).items().filter(name=item)

or items without the brackets. (not sure about the syntax at the moment)

The above is the same as:

# This could produce 404
category = get_object_or_404(Category,name=category)

# This will result in an empty queryset and not 404
items = category.items().filter(name=item)

It is also obvious that the last line does not produce 404 since 404 is HTML related and the line above is a DB query which at most should result in something empty.

I just saw your answer about using NoSQL. Sorry, forgot about that.

In that case I cannot help you.

Good Luck
