This stuff is killing me. LOL I think I just don't understand the urllib2 yet.
I'm trying something very simple, but am having a terrible time figuring out how to get it to work in python and django. All I want to do is post to my site with params. Here is what I have: def test(request): test = " NOTHING " if request.method=='POST': test = request.POST.get('test',None) print 'data posted' print 'test param: ',test return HttpResponse("Text only, please."+str(test), content_type="text/plain") Here is how I'm trying to call it via IDLE: >>> parms = urllib.urlencode([('test','testing'),('test2','testing2')]) >>> print parms test=testing&test2=testing2 >>> response = urllib2.urlopen('http://my.ip.address:8080/myapp/test/',parms) Heres the error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<console>", line 1, in <module> File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/urllib2.py", line 124, in urlopen return _opener.open(url, data, timeout) File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/urllib2.py", line 389, in open response = meth(req, response) File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/urllib2.py", line 502, in http_response 'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs) File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/urllib2.py", line 427, in error return self._call_chain(*args) File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/urllib2.py", line 361, in _call_chain result = func(*args) File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/urllib2.py", line 510, in http_error_default raise HTTPError(req.get_full_url(), code, msg, hdrs, fp) HTTPError: HTTP Error 403: FORBIDDEN Any advice is greatly appreciated.
