I have been doing stuff like (str type-as-keyword) to push values into HTML forms, which leaves me with a string like ":cities" when the HTML forms are submitted. I might fetch them like:
(let [this-item (get-in request [:params "answers"])) If I then do: this-item-as-keyword (keyword this-item) I get a value like: ::cities but I do not want the double colons. I find myself doing awkward things like: (st/replace (str (:name item)) #":" "") to remove the colon from the string before I transform the string into a keyword. I assume there must be a more elegant way to do this? (Someone might be tempted to say that I should not put the keywords into HTML forms, but that doesn't solve the problem, as I then have to call (st/replace) before I put the value in the form, rather than when I receive the form input -- in other words, that "solution" changes when I have to remove the colon, but does not fix the problem.) -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
