django and csrf_token problem

I have a little problem with the token in django.

When I write a POST form and add {{csrf_token}}, when I submit it the token is checked .

But when I send a POST request (in ajax) and add the paramater manually csrfmiddlewaretoken , the token is not checked.

But I don't know why ?

Thanks.

AJAX requests are not checked for CSRF: the browser's same origin policy means that CSRF attacks are much harder. See the explanation in the docs.
