You are right, this is only true of Django queries :) On Jan 23, 6:33 pm, djidjadji djidja...@gmail.com wrote: This is not true. They are equivalent. They modify the query IN-PLACE.

At any point, if you want to know the value of the type variable you need to pass it to your handler You have at least 3 ways of doing so: 1. having a dedicated handler with a dedicated URL 2. passing the variable as a GET parameter (/directorysubmithandler? dir_type=...) 3. passing the variable as a POST parameter (adding input type=hidden name=dir_type value=... inside your form) to do 2 and 3 you just need to change the output of the handle that returns the form's page On Jan 23, 11:02 pm, Zeynel azeyn...@gmail.com wrote: On Jan 23, 3:12 am, ClaudeVedovinicla...@vedovini.net wrote: to do that you need to have your form action posted to /dir?type=xxx I have action=/directorysubmithandler I don't understand why form handler needs to be the final url.

Also, this is the mapping I use: ('/dir', DirectoryHandler), Thanks.
