here is the version I thought should have worked, but its not quite there
def add_score(request):
#response_dict ={}
secret_key = "asdf789as7df89asdf87ds89a8f7sfd8"
name =""
score=0
hash=""
# getting the posted data
if request.GET:
name = request.POST['name']
print name
score = request.POST['score']
print score
hash = request.POST['hash']
print hash
#leaderboard = {'name': name, 'score': score, 'hash': hash}
#hashlib stuff for encryption
m = hashlib.md5()
m.update(name+str(score)+secret_key)
real_hash = m.hexdigest()
#storing it into database
if real_hash == hash:
# store the name and score into the database
leaderboard = Scores(name = request.POST['name'] ,score =
request.POST['score'])
leaderboard.save
leaderboard = Scores.objects.all()
return render_to_response('add_score.html', {'leaderboard': leaderboard})
This version does not do what i wanted it do. which is 1) Read the posted
data 2) Store it into database
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
