Really stupid question here... but I can't seem to figure it out. In PHP when passing url params for say: www.mysit.com/index?name=steve I would use:
$_GET["name"] In web2py I know you can get stuff via request.vars.someNameAttribute for stuff like what text is within <input> box. But how do I get params straight from the url string? Specifically I have form like this: <form action="add_comment?idnum=5"> <input type="text" name="comment_text"/> <input type="submit"/> </form> In the controller def add_comment(), how do I get that the idnum is 5??? I've been trying request.vars.idnum but this doesn't return anything. Am I not calling it right? Or is there some issue with the way I'm passing it in the "action" attribute?
