[web2py] Re: web2py using "foreign" form
There is no `request.post_vars`, and thus no `request.post_vars.stripeToken`, when the controller the form was submitted to executes. I cannot see any such hidden field in the DOM, but there not being one would explain why it isn't getting back to me. Further poking around, I found a section (not displayed) of class stripeErrorMessage, the contents of which says Sorry, there was a problem loading Checkout. If this persists, please try a different browser. But I'm thinking that is there to be displayed IF there is a problem, as the form comes up fine and responds to the credit card number appropriately (except for giving me back the token).

Once loaded, that script generates the form you are seeing in the DOM. That form is what the user fills out, and it is submitted directly to Stripe, not to your web2py server. Stripe then returns the "stripeToken" to the browser, adds it to a hidden field within your form, and submits that form to the web2py controller.

[web2py] Re: web2py using "foreign" form
That's what I would have thought, but if I have the following in my view:
https://checkout.stripe.com/checkout.js"; class="stripe-button"
data-email="{{=auth.user.email}}"
data-key="{{=pk}}"
data-amount="{{=amount}}"
data-name="UKI TMS"
data-description="{{=description}}"
data-image=
"https://stripe.com/img/documentation/checkout/marketplace.png";
data-panel-label="{{=label}}"
data-locale="auto">
and the following in my `pay` controller:
def charge():
return DIV("%r"%request,_class="well")
the displayed value of `request._post_vars` is None. Same thing if I don't
specify `args` in the action URL, or leave the action URL empty (and
display `request.env` from the appropriate controller).
Poking around the DOM, I see that there is *another* form inside of mine,
and this is the form which contains the "submit" button (along with all of
the input fields).
Even more confused now,
Scott

[web2py] Re: web2py using "foreign" form
If the form is submitted via a POST request, everything will be in request.post_vars (request.post_vars is not specific to web2py-generated forms -- it is simply where posted data are made available).
