Massimo,
Thanks for the reply. But it didn't work. I've this simple assign
function:
def assign():
print request.vars
and it prints this. Note the \r\n as first characters. This is what is
causing the problem
<Storage {'\r\nfields': "{'case_id': 16, 'assign_to':
'age...@example.com"}>
Just for the ref, I'm using the below python script for sending
parameters.
data = {'fields': {'case_id': 16, 'assign_to': 'age...@example.com'}}
data = urllib.urlencode(data)
response = urllib2.urlopen(request,data).read()
Hope you can help me out. Thanks,
Joseph
