Re: request.POST['value'] cannot get value, 500 error

[Sandman]

I've been able to extract values from POST and GET objects by doing
request.POST.get('value')

Did you try this?

Re: request.POST['value'] cannot get value, 500 error

[robinne]

Thanks. I tried a lot of different options but nothing was working.
Finally got it working with this:

req = request.POST['value']#this is how InputEx sends it, with root =
value.
parsedRequest = simplejson.loads(req)
print parsedRequest["Username"]

Basically, I got the array of 'value', then turned that into JSON and
then read from that.

Does

request.POST['value'][0]['LastName']

work?

It looks like your post data has an array (keyed as 'value') of dicts.

You might also consider using Firebug (or something similar) to inspect the
http requests and responses when you are developing.

request.POST['value'] cannot get value, 500 error

[robinne]

I am posting data from a form to a django view. The form is created
using inputEx (a YUI-like interface). The form gets created much like
you create a YUI form and you include names for all your fields in
javascript. It is javascript that creates the form on the page.

I am able to load database data from the django view into my form
fields (sending json string to UI), but when I post I cannot access
individual posted values, even though I can see that the
'request.POST' is getting posted to the django view. The request.POST
looks something like 

When trying to access a value by using...

def MemberInfo(request, member_id):
if request.method == "POST":
print request.POST
try:
print request.POST['LastName'] #ERROR

...
error message is:
 "POST /MemberInfo/1 HTTP/1.1" 500 54476

any ideas?
