Thank you, all. that was very helpful, and did solve many of my
problems. I was addressing the dict with () rather than [].
I'm still having one problem, though -- extracting the keywords. NOw,
if you check the value for Form below, you'll see there is more than
one keyword entry. When I do: keywords = form["keywords"] - what sort
of data structure do I get back?
th anks so much again.
-rsr-
if form.has_key("keywords"):
keywords = str(form["keywords"].value)
else:
keywords = "k"
fileHandle.write("here comes keywords:")
fileHandle.write(str(keywords))
fileHandle.write("keyword info");
fileHandle.write(str(form.has_key("keywords")))
fileHandle.flush()
