Practical Django Projects - TinyMCE Integration Issue

Following James Bennett's book, I got stalled in Chapter 3 (Customizing The Simple CMS) when I tried to integrate TinyMCE. The solution is rather simple, just move the tiny_mce entry in the urlpatterns one line up.

Here's my urls.py:
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *

# Uncomment the next two lines to enable the admin:
from django.contrib import admin
admin.autodiscover()

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    # Example:
    # (r'^cms/', include('cms.foo.urls')),

    # Uncomment the admin/doc line below and add 'django.contrib.admindocs'
    # to INSTALLED_APPS to enable admin documentation:
    # (r'^admin/doc/', include('django.contrib.admindocs.urls')),

    # Uncomment the next line to enable the admin:
    (r'^admin/(.*)', admin.site.root),
    (r'^tiny_mce/(?P<path>.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve',
        { 'document_root':'C:\\dev\\python\\django\\media\\tinymce\\jscripts\\tiny_mce' },),
    (r'', include('django.contrib.flatpages.urls')),
  
)

By the way, this, this and this are excellent in outlining the code changes from Django 0.96 to 1.0, which should coincide with the book.
