[PLUG] Python CGI Problem w/ GET and POST

[Casey Bralla <MailList@nerdworld.org>]

Any python CGI programmers on the list?

 

I've got a weird problem. I can use the "get" command to send data to my cgi script (running python), but if I use "post", I get no data at all.

 

So on the web page, I'll have something like:

 

<FORM action="" method="get">

<INPUT type="submit" value="Project Summary" >

</FORM>

 

This works, and the cgi.FieldStorage() routine correctly picks up the data sent with the input command. Also, the data appears on the URL line.

 

However, if I substitute a "post" for "get", the URL line is blank (as it should be), but cgi.FieldStorage is completely null.

 

 

Anybody have any ideas what is going on?

 

TIA!
