Hi,

I'm trying to run a sql query with parameters taken from a dict, here is 
the relevant part of the code:
        query = "select * from table where name='%(name)s'"
        parameters = {'name':'valueofname'}
         cursor = connection.cursor()
         data = cursor.execute(query,parameters)


The error I get is:

TypeError: format requires a mapping


But, as far as I know (from PEP249) this should be possible.
Basically, what I need, is to pass the parameters values in a dict, and 
not as a list or tuple as is shown in django docs.

Which is the correct way to accomplish this?

Thanks a lot.
