How to add an inline image to a HTML template - mailgun

In mailgun, am trying to have an HTML template that includes images. The images are static so they don't change from one email to another.
When adding the HTML code in the mailgun's template preview, the images are shown properly. However when the email is sent, the images are not shown. Anyone had that issue and was able to solve it?

Does Django render JS on server side?

I know that Django has default config of SSR (server-side rendering) but all the articles I have gone through mention that the Django-forms are rendered on server side and then sent to the browser. No specific information on the use case when javascript is mixed in the template.
I want to know if I use jquery tables in my Django template. Does that still render on server side? If yes then how does it render Javascript/jquery on the server-side?
I'd be glad if someone corrects me if my question itself has invalid argument.
JavaScript is for browsers so it doesn't matter if you write it in your template or add a link to it. The only way to render JS on the server-side is to actually have an engine doing that for you which Django doesn't.
What Django's template engine does is it will render the template based on the tags and HTML you provided and sends a valid HTML to the user containing the js code or js files alongside CSS and then browser runs those js and CSS codes and renders the final webpage.

django-allauth email template styling

I am using django-allauth in my django application and the challenge I am facing has to do with the styling of the email sent. When a user registers, a confirmation mail is sent to the person but the email is just rendered as plain text. how can one style the email template.
Styling can be done in the templates. Look in allauth/account/email_confirm.html and other template files in that location.
You will need to copy those files to your own template directory before editing.
Other email templates are there as well. Also look into the email subdirectory, which contains .txt files which are included by the templates.

Allow images and links in Google Caja HTML emails

I am trying to display an html email in a webpage using caja. I am loading it like this:
caja.load(document.getElementById('messagebox'), undefined, function(frame) {
frame.code(contentUrl, 'text/html').run();
});
When it renders, all anchor href and image src tags are stripped. So you cannot see images or click links. I am guessing this is the default behaviour to prevent attacks.
Is there a way to allow the html to be rendered as intended, displaying all images and having clickable links?
just starting using caja today and the links to api docs go to 404 so cannot find the info.
Thanks
Use this policy caja.policy.net.ALL instead of undefined when you call load

Django internal requests

I have project in Django with already written pages. I want to rewrite some of them and put html content using Ajax in Modal window from Twitter Bootstrap. These pages should be internal(access from browser should be forbidden). Is it possible in Django?
You can check request.is_ajax() in the view and send back a different template. I usually do this with passing in a different context variable for the base template that doesn't show any of the usual header, footer, etc. content.

django sorl-thumbnail json

I am using Sorl-Thumbnail to generate thumbnails within pages via template tags.
This all works perfectly fine.
However I have now added a store locator function to the site which feeds into my Google Maps JS via JSON.
In the infowindow popups I would like to put a tiny image of the storefront.
So I need to create another size of thumbnail and I need to include the URL for this within my JSON.
It seemed initially that Sorl doesnt support this due to its requirement for Tags within a page.
I have looked at the low level API version "get_thumbnail" and have tried to implement this within my Model without much luck so far.
I have no problem with my JSON and serialisation, just getting the thumbnail generated and into the model prior to this.
Has anyone had any experience with this scenario previously?
Cheers
