Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 405 (METHOD NOT ALLOWED) in django

i am making an app in django. this is my index.html page.

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>
<head>
    <title>The index page</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Choose the name of student</h1>
    <form action= "{% url 'detail' %}" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    {% csrf_token %}
            <select name="namedrop">
                {% for name in student_list %}
                <option>{{name.stuname}}</option>
                {% endfor %}

            </select>

    <input type="submit" name="submit">
    </form>
</body>
</html>

it creates a drop down list of the name of students. when i select one and click on submit button, it opens a new page detail but fails to show anything on the page. the error it is showing is Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 405 (METHOD NOT ALLOWED). my views.py is as below:

from .models import student,subject
from django.views import generic
from django.views.generic import View
from django.shortcuts import render

class IndexView(generic.ListView):
    template_name= 'studinfo/index.html'
    context_object_name= 'student_list'

    def get_queryset(self):
        return student.objects.all()

class DetailView(generic.DetailView):
    model=  student,subject
    template_name='studinfo/detail.html'


def getname(request):
    if request.method=='POST':
        name=request.get['namedrop']
        return render(request, 'detail.html', {'name':name})

this is urls.py

from django.conf.urls import url
from . import views
from .models import student

urlpatterns= [
    url(r'^$',views.IndexView.as_view(),name='index'),
    url(r'^detail/$',views.DetailView.as_view(),name='detail'),

]


from .models import student
from django.views import generic
from django.views.generic import View
from django.http import Http404
from django.shortcuts import render



class IndexView(generic.ListView):
    template_name= 'studinfo/index.html'
    context_object_name= 'student_list'

    def get_queryset(self):
        return student.objects.all()

def detail(request,student_id):
    try:

        p = student.objects.get(pk=student_id)
    except student.DoesNotExist:

        raise Http404("Poll does not exist")
    return render(request, 'studinfo/detail.html', {'name': p})

this is my view now..now it is raising an error ..TypeError at /studinfo/detail/ detail() takes exactly 2 arguments (1 given) Request Method: POST 500 (INTERNAL SERVER ERROR)

DetailView can not process post requests. DetailView only allows get requests. 405 method not allowed error is raised when you are using a wrong request method since it does not allow post request it it raising 405 error.

I see that you have a getname view. I think you were trying to use that. If not that then you have to change your url to a view that accepts post requests. More on DetailView can be read here
