I want to be able to do this: result = ab.perform(**request.POST)
where: def perform(self, **kwargs): Of course, this doesn't work, and I get the error "keywords must be strings". After some searching, I suppose this is because the POST dict uses unicode, but Python expects strings or something like that. The only thing I found about this was in the django IRC archives and the person's solution was "don't do that... check the newforms docs" But, shouldn't I be able to send post data that isn't from a form? And, shouldn't I be able to access request.POST like a dict? I want my views to be generic and I don't know what my keywords are. My question is: is there any way to do this without wasting the time of a loop that just writes the values and keys into a new dict that I actually can pass as a keyword argument? This doesn't seem like a crazy request. I have my data in nice keyword/value pairs, why should I have to loop through them just to pass them to a function? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
