Hi Massimo,
Thanks for that but it doesn't really answer my question. When I return
dict(results=results), I want to pass that to a script, lets say
'process.py' to tokenize it etc. My question is: Do I create a new
controller called process.py (which won't have a corresponding HTML page),
or do I create a model? My app doesn't have a database, it doesn't need
one. I am dealing with one user input term that returns 3 sets of json data
which will be parsed and output directly. It doesn't need to be stored. Can
you give me any info regarding that. I'm just not sure where I should be
creating my .py files to do the processing.
