Hi, I have a little python webservice that I created, and in one of the methods I need to store some binary data that was "posted"... I want to do something like this, but it doesn't work.
username = form.get("username", "") message = form.get("message", "") attachment = form.get("attachment", None) ... c.execute("""INSERT INTO Message (username, message, attachment) VALUES (%s, %s, %s)""", (username, message, attachment)) "attachment" is then some binary data that was posted, but when I look in the mysql database, I see values for the attachment field which look like: Field('attachment', '\x89PNG\r\n\x1a\n\x00\x00\... so it is storing something, just not my binary data (in this case a picture). the attachment column is a longblob in mysql. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
