Hi all, Bit of a python newbie so need a little help with a CGI script I'm trying to write. I've got it working fine as long as the fields of the form are filled in correctly, however I need to be able to accept blank entries. Therefore I want to convert any empty entries to an empty string.
For example, if I call the following CGI script as: http://localhost/cgi-bin/test.cgi?myfield=hello ...it prints hello in the browser. But if I call it as: http://localhost/cgi-bin/test.cgi?myfield= I get an exception. I want it to treat myfield as an empty string and not throw an exception. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Chris. Script below: #!/usr/bin/env python2 # Import CGI and CGI debug libraries import cgi import cgitb; cgitb.enable() def test(): value=form["myfield"].value print value # Start of main code print 'Content-type: text/html' print # Get the contents of the query string form = cgi.FieldStorage() test() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
