dajaxice error 'str' object has no attribute 'has_header'

Question

I tried to use dajaxice for refreshing my table but I see an error.

Traceback:

Exception Type: AttributeError at /bank/index1/
Exception Value: 'str' object has no attribute 'has_header'

This is my view:

def index1(request):

    data = MelliTable(ModelMelli.objects.filter(check=False))
    RequestConfig(request, paginate={'per_page': 20}).configure(table)
    table = render_to_string('meli/index.html', {'data': data })
    return simplejson.dumps({'table':table})
dajaxice_functions.register(index1)

And my js is :

<script>
function my_callback(data){
    if(data!=Dajaxice.EXCEPTION){
        document.getElementById('test').innerHTML = data.table;
    }
    else{
        alert('Error');
    }
}
</script>

django-dajaxice works by wrapping view functions, here index1 in your code, with special handler; and serving them through dynamically matched urls instead of /bank/index1/.
Thus you don't have to define urlpattern /bank/index1/ for the index1, just access it through Dajaxice interface, perhaps Dajaxice.bank.index1(my_callback) here.

The error was caused by the reason that a normal Django view is expected to return an HttpResponse() instance, whilst index1 returns a string here (When you call through dajaxice interface, the special handler mentioned above would put the string to an HttpResponse w/o problem)
