I hate to chime in here but I recently started using Django, quite successfully. I'm also a consent-student. I fear that you are going to have a lot of trouble using Django (or anything like it) if you don't build some basics.
To successfully use a product like Django, basic knowledge of at least database administration will go along way. I'd also highly suggest you go though a Intro-to-python book. (The book Dive In To python is online: http://diveintopython.org/toc/index.html) Don't get me wrong, you don't need to be an expert -- or even close -- of anything to use these tools. But, some basic knowledge will take you a long way when trying to determine what a problem might be or how to go about something.
