No, I think you've misunderstood because while I thought I was being clear I probably was not. So here is the complete code of create_edit_passengers3.py:
#!/usr/bin/python import cgitb; cgitb.enable() import cgi import sys,os sys.path.append(os.getcwd()) import MySQLdb from login import login import fpformat from New_Passengers_Curr_Customers import New_Passengers_Curr_Customers from New_Passengers_Addl_Customers import New_Passengers_Addl_Customers from New_Passenger import New_Passenger form = cgi.FieldStorage() def sortedDictValues(adict): items = adict.items() items.sort() return [value for key, value in items] def create_edit_passengers3(): print "Content-Type: text/html" print print ''' <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Frameset//EN" " http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-frameset.dtd";> <head xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";> </head> <body> ''' user, passwd, db, host = login() database = MySQLdb.connect(host, user, passwd, db) cursor = database.cursor() cursor.execute('select id from Flights;') flights = [itm[0] for itm in cursor] cursor.execute('select id, first_name, middle_name, last_name, suffix from Customers;') customers = cursor.fetchall() try: cursor.execute('select p.id, c.first_name, c.middle_name, c.last_name, c.suffix, c.discount, p.flights_id, p.name, f.price, c.id from Customers c join Passengers p on c.id=p.customer_id join Flights f on p.flights_id=f.id ;') passengers = cursor.fetchall() print '<form method="post" action="create_edit_passengers4.py">\n' start_html = "<table border='2'>\n <tr>\n <td><b>Delete?</b></td>\n <td><b>Flight</b></td>\n <td><b>Name</b></td>\n <td><b>Discount</b></td>\n <td><b>Price</b></td>\n </tr>\n" passengers_html = [] ids = [] i = 0 for passenger in passengers: do_delete = form.getfirst('%s:delete' % passenger[0]) New_Passenger(passenger, do_delete) printHTML = sortedDictValues(dict(zip(ids, passengers_html))) if len(printHTML) > 0: print start_html for html in printHTML: print html print "</table>" except MySQLdb.ProgrammingError: pass New_Passengers_Curr_Customers(customers, flights, new_passengers_curr_customers) new_passengers_addl_customers = int(form.getfirst('new_passengers_addl_customers', 0)) New_Passengers_Addl_Customers(customers, flights, new_passengers_addl_customers) if (new_passengers_addl_customers > 0) or (new_passengers_curr_customers > 0): print "<input type='submit' value=' Send ' />" print '</body>\n</html>' cursor.close() create_edit_passengers3() Now, create_edit_passengers3() is called by the form/submit button in (you guessed it) create_edit_passengers2.py, the latter containing a var in it which *should* be accessible to create_edit_passengers3.py, one would think. *However*, if I put the following line in create_edit_passengers3.py (even in the beginning outside the fn of the same name): new_passengers_curr_customers = int(form.getfirst('new_passengers_curr_customers', 0)) the value will *always* be 0. *However*, if I put that *same_line* of code in New_Passengers.py (and fn of same name). it will give me the correct value, which I can then pass back to the calling script (create_edit_passengers3.py). Can you explain to me why it would behave like that? I've never had a problem like this before and I've worked with accessing variables by this manner in many a script. TIA, beno
