Default: ``True``



Whether to append trailing slashes to URLs. This is only used if

``CommonMiddleware`` is installed (see :doc:`/topics/http/middleware`). See also

``PREPEND_WWW``.

When set to ``True``, if the request URL does not match any of the patterns 

in the URLconf and it doesn't end in a slash, an HTTP redirect is issued to the

same URL with a slash appended. Note that the redirect may cause any data 

submitted in a POST request to be lost.
